JALAPENO NUT BRITTLE
Sweet brittle using nuts of choice. If extra heat is desired go for a habanero and add some fresh jalapeno at the end along with the extracts. This is not spicy it just gives You That OH! What is that flavor? If wanting heat go for additional jalapenos added at the end of cooking along with the baking soda.
