Microwave Peanut Brittle
Mix 1/2 cup light corn syrup and 1 cup of sugar in microwave safe bowl.
Microwave on high for 4 minutes.
Add 1 cup of salted peanuts.
Microwave for 3 -5 minutes. (mine was ready in 3 minutes)
Add one teaspoon of vanilla and one teaspoon of baking soda.
(Watch out! It's hot and it foams up)
Pour onto buttered cookie sheet.
break into pieces.
I used a 4 cup pyrex measuring cup to make this in. I don't have a candy thermometer to test with but after the second stage in the microwave for 3 minutes the syrup formed very hard balls in a glass of cold water.
