Microwave Peanut Brittle
(allrecipes.com)
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 cup salted peanuts
1 teaspoon butter
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 teaspoon baking soda
Butter a cookie sheet. Combine sugar and corn syrup in a 2 quart glass bowl and microwave on high 3 1/2 minutes. Stir in peanuts and microwave on high 3 1/2 minutes more, then stir in butter and vanilla and microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.
Stir in baking soda until light and foamy. Pour onto cookie sheet and spread thin. Cool completely and break into pieces and serve.
This turned out really well and was SUPER easy! Would be great to put on a Christmas plate, maybe paired with fudge. I think you could also have fun experimenting with this: different nuts, pretzels, etc. I drizzled dark chocolate over mine, but I think I might like them best plain.
