     Peanut Brittle

Category   Desserts - Breads
Sub Category   Holiday Dish
Preptime   45 minutes

Ingredients
1 Cup sugar
1/4 Cup water
1/2 Cup white Karo syrup
1 Cup RAW spanish peanuts
1 Tablespoon butter
i Teaspoon soda
 

Instructions
Butter a large baking sheet. A electric frying pan works very well for this recipe. Set temperature at 320 degrees. A heavy duty frying pan works also. You just have to monitor the medium heat to ensure the candy is not burned.
Combine the sugar, water, syrup and RAW spanish peanuts in the pan over medium heat. Stir constantly and cook until the candy reaches hard ball stage. A very thin thread is formed when the spoon (recommend using a wooden spoon) is lifted six to nine inches out of the pan. This usually takes 7 to 9 minutes.
Working quickly, add the butter and stir thoroughly. Next add the soda and watch the magic. Stir very quickly, the mixture will foam up and turn white, then a mild green color. Keep cooking and stirring until the mixture reaches a medium honey color and has a sheen to the mixture.
Remove from heat and quickly pour onto the baking sheet. Allow to cool and break into pieces using your hands or the handle of a wooden spoon. Store in ziplock bags or sealed plastic ware. Do not freeze.
