This is a peanut brittle I concocted from several different recipes I have seen and used for peanut brittle over the years. It’s a fun twist on the standard brittle and tastes like a mix between hot cinnamon candies and peanut brittle.
Ingredients
- 1 cup sugar
- ½ cup light corn syrup
- 1 cup dry-roasted peanuts
- ½ teaspoon ground cinnamon
- ¼ teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 1 teaspoon butter or margarine
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
Step 1
In a glass bowl, stir together the sugar, corn syrup, peanuts, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper until thoroughly blended. Microwave on high for 6 minutes. Slowly stir in the butter, and microwave an additional 30 seconds.
Step 2
Very carefully remove bowl from the microwave as the contents will be extremely hot. Gently stir in baking soda until mixture becomes light and foamy. Turn batter out onto a lightly oiled cookie sheet, scraping sides of bowl with a rubber spatula. Allow brittle to cool for 1 hour, then break into pieces.
Note
Use a bowl large enough to allow mixture to boil during cooking.
