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

Combine sugar, butter, syrup and salt in 2 quart glass casserole or mixing bowl. Microwave on High for 5 minutes. Stir in peanuts. Microwave 3 to 5 minutes more on High. Syrup and peanuts will be very lightly browned. I cook 5 minutes in my microwave. Stir in vanilla and soda until light and foamy. Spread out thin on a large buttered hot cookie sheet. Cool. Break in pieces and store.

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