PEANUT BRITTLE 
2 c. white sugar
1/2 c. water
1 c. white syrup

Boil to hard ball, 260 degrees.

Add: 4 c. raw peanuts

Continue cooking and stirring until peanuts are done (about 13 minutes), or until you reach 290 degrees. Take off fire and add: 2 tsp. baking soda

Spread IMMEDIATELY very thin on well greased cookie sheets. NOTE: If you have your cookie sheets warmed in the oven just before spreading, your spreading will be easier and your brittle will be thinner. Enjoy.
