I had this great idea to make an old classic. Microwave peanut brittle! But when I couldn't find my sister-in-law's recipe, I goggled it and found one that seemed perfect; Plantar's Peanut Brittle. I have to warn you though, in retrospect, there are two ways to interpret the recipe. This may look chocolatey luscious, but what it is, which is a great shame, is burnt! So when the recipe says;
- "Microwave sugar and corn syrup in large microwaveable bowl on HIGH 5 min., stirring after 3 min. Stir in peanuts. Microwave an additional 3 to 5 min. or until golden brown."
- What it does NOT mean, is microwave for 3 mins, stir, another 2 mins. Stir in peanuts, then microwave for another 3 minutes!
- I smelled smoke and stopped it before the end, but even I couldn't eat it, and I have the lowest standards in the house for sweets! Didn't have enough corn syrup for another go. Sad day for peanut brittle lovers everywhere! Karla, please send me your recipe again!
