Easy No-Fail Microwave Peanut Brittle image

I have been making this since microwaves first came out, it's so easy and really a no-fail recipe, you may use other kinds of nuts if desired --- *warning* this is very habit-forming :)

Provided by @MakeItYours

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 1/2 cups dry roasted salted peanuts (use dry roasted peanuts only!)
1 tablespoon butter
1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla
1/2 teaspoon maple extract or 2 teaspoons vanilla
1 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Combine sugar and corn syrup in a 3-qt heat-resistant plastic microsafe bowl.
  • Microwave on high for 5 minutes.
  • Stir in peanuts; microwave on high for 2-3 mins longer, or until peanuts and syrup are lightly browned.
  • Add butter, vanilla and baking soda.
  • Mix until light and foamy (be careful, syrup is HOT!).
  • Pour quickly onto a buttered cookie sheet, and spread to desired thickness.
  • When cool, break into pieces.
