Microwave Peanut Brittle ~ So Easy!!

Please like, share with your friends on social media and subscribe! It would be greatly appreciated! Enjoy your day!!
Be very careful! The dish you use and the mixture gets VERY HOT!! Also, wash your dish immediately because the peanut brittle sticks to it and makes it difficult to clean if it sits on it!!
In a microwave safe dish add:
1 cup sugar
1/2 cup Karo corn syrup
Mix together as best as you can!
Place in microwave for 4 minutes.
Mix in one cup of nuts (cashews, peanuts or almonds) I used cashews!
Place back in the microwave for 4 minutes.
Mix in 1 tsp butter and 1 tsp vanilla extract.
Place back in microwave for 1 minutes 30 seconds.
Mix in 1 tsp baking soda and pour on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Let sit for 45 - 60 minutes to harden. Break into whatever size pieces you like!
Enjoy!

How long would this stay good if I boxed it up as gifts? Thanks!

I would say two weeks? I put it in the refrigerator after the first couple of days. It may be good for longer, but I'm not sure. Better safe than sorry! Thank you for watching!

Why so little butter? I use a whole stick.

Hi Ella! This recipe only makes a small batch. I think more butter in this recipe would make it greasy. I would love to try your recipe! Thanks so much for watching!

A whole stick might make it not set up, but I've used like 2 TBS before.
