The other day at Publix they had the large cans of Planter's Peanuts BOGO. I had not one, but two coupons I could use. One store coupon and one manufacturer coupon. This made these peanuts about $1 per can. Yeah! I came home with 4 large cans. I then remembered this recipe that I hadn't made in awhile. It's so easy and taste pretty much like my Bigmama's homemade brittle that she use to make all the time when I was a child.
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup karo syrup
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
1 cup planters peanuts
Place sugar and karo syrup in a microwave safe bowl. Stir. Microwave for 5 minutes.
Stir in peanuts and the butter. Stir and cook for another 2 1/2 minutes. The recipe calls for 3-4 minutes but I found this to work better. Remove from microwave and add the soda and vanilla. Stir and immediately pour onto a cookie sheet that you have sprayed with Pam. Allow to cool completely. Break into pieces just the right side to eat. Store in an container with a good tight lid.
