1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup

Directions:
|
Microwave times will vary with oven wattage. This recipe based on 1100w carousel oven. Spray a large baking sheet with cooking oil spray and place on hot pad or cooling rack. In large microwave-safe (non-plastic) bowl, combine sugar, light corn syrup and pinch of salt. Mix thoroughly, until all the sugar is incorporated well into the syrup to prevent burning. Microwave 5 minutes. Without delay, add peanuts, butter, vanilla, and stir well. Microwave 3 more minutes. Immediately add baking soda, and beat well.
Pour onto prepared baking sheet and spread with wooden spoon. Cool until set. Break into pieces. Store in airtight container.

I used to stand over the stove, stirring the pot, using a candy thermometer, and sometimes getting very hard brittle. This recipe is almost fail-proof and not too hard. You'll be finished in less than 15 minutes, too.
