Peanut Brittle


Ingredients:

2 cups sugar
l cup light corn syrup
l cup butter (oleo)
1/2 cup water
2 cups peanuts
1 teaspoon baking soda


Combine sugar,corn syrup and water in a 3 quart saucepan. Cook and stir until sugar dissolves. When syrup boils, put in butter. Stir frequently.

I don't use a candy in them. I just put some in a dish of cold water and when it is at the hard crack stage, remove from heat and stir in nuts and soda. Spread on cookie sheet and when cool crack it up.


The hard crack stage is when you put some from the spoon in the water and it gets hard and cracks. I like a lot of nuts and I use the whole can of peanuts.
