10 MINUTE PEANUT BRITTLE 
1 c. sugar
1/2 c. light corn syrup
1/8 tsp. salt
1-1 1/2 c. roasted salted peanuts
1 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla
1 tsp. baking soda

Combine sugar, syrup and salt in 2 quart casserole or mixing bowl. Microwave at high 5 minutes. Stir in peanuts. Microwave 3-5 minutes, stirring after 3 minutes, until syrup and peanuts are lightly browned. Stir in butter, vanilla and soda until light and foamy.

Spread to 1/4 inch thickness on large well buttered cookie sheet. Very thin brittle, cool mixture on cookie sheet 3-5 minutes, lift from sheet and pull or stretch mixture to desired thinness.

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