- 1 1/2 C. sugar
- 1 1/2 C. corn syrup
- 1/2 C. hot water
- 1 1/2 C. raw peanuts
- 1 1/2 t. baking soda
- Add sugar, corn syrup and water to a large saucepan. Cook until it threads, about 230°F.
- Add the. raw peanuts
- Cook just to under 300°F. Add the baking soda. Mixture will foam and turn color. Stir about 1 minute.
- Have ready a piece of buttered foil on a cookie sheet. (or a marble slab-buttered) Pour out quickly being very careful not to touch the candy mixture.
- It is very hot. I like it thin so I use 2 buttered forks and pull the peanut brittle from the edges to thin it some.
