food magazine ?


List of Ingredients





1 cup Karo (light) (Corn Syrup)
2 cups Sugar
1/2 cup water

2 cups butter (not margarine)
2 cups peanuts (I use salted for the flavor but works fine without salt) you can use more peanuts!
1 teaspoon baking soda



Recipe



Butter (really well) 2 pans approx 7" X 11" (or one large pan if you want
thinner brittle) Stir together the KARO, Sugar and water then bring to a
boil stirring constantly, Add Butter continue boiling and stirring to 280
degrees (F) on a candy thermometer, then add peanuts (mixture should be a
creamy tan color) STIR until 305 degrees F, (take off the heat if it
starts to brown) Remove from heat and stir in soda and pour into pans. use
a fork to pull away from the sides and when cool enough to touch turn the
slab over when completely cooled break into pieces I've also used mixed
nuts and made it a little thinner or for a real change add cinnamon or
nutmeg.
