Christmas Peanut Brittle
Source of Recipe
fund raiser Cookbook titled Polish Town Fair & Festival 1984
you add to one large cooking pan
A cup of each of these;
White syrup, sugar, water too
And blend with gentle ease.
A teaspoonful of table salt,
When it is added too,
Will mean that you have reached the point
When you must cook the brew.
So cook it to the soft ball stage
And then it is time to add
A tablespoon of butter
And the peanuts to your pan.
It takes one pound of peanuts
That you've purchased in the shell,
And shucked yourself ahead of time
To make this turn out well.
With all ingredients in the pan
You cook until it's brown,
And take your pan from off the stove
Your candy's almost done.
Stir in one teaspoon soda,
Pour on a buttered sheet,
And let it harden as it will,
Then break in chunks your treat.
