MICROWAVE PEANUT BRITTLE 
1 1/2 c. raw peanuts
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. white Karo
Few grains salt
1 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda

Mix peanuts, sugar, Karo and salt in a glass mixing bowl. Cook 7 minutes on High. After 3 1/2 minutes, stir well and continue cooking 3 1/2 minutes more. Mixture should be bubbling and peanuts turning brown.

Quickly stir in butter and vanilla. Cook 3 minutes longer. Add soda and stir quickly, just until it begins to foam. Pour into a greased baking sheet. Let cool 15 minutes longer. Break up and store in airtight container.

Since microwave ovens vary in power, you may need to adjust your cooking time.
