Pecan or Peanut Brittle

2 cups raw shelled peanuts or 2 cups
chopped pecans
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 tablespoons water
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda

Preheat electric frying pan to 350 degrees F. Place peanuts or pecans in pan, and add sugar, corn syrup and water. Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 10 minutes or until syrup becomes golden. Add baking soda and stir thoroughly. Mixture will foam and deepen in color. Quickly pour mixture onto greased cookie sheet, and spread as thinly as possible with a spoon or knife. Cool until it is hardened and no longer sticky to touch.

Break into bite-size pieces. Wrap individually in foil or plastic wrap.
