Peanut Brittle

This is a perfectly perfect recipe that i used. I loved it and used it for christmas gifts.

Peanut brittle
1 c. raw Spanish peanuts
1 C. white sugar
½ c. light corn syrup
½ c. water
1 t. baking soda
1. lay out several sheet so foil to spoon the hot peanut brittle onto.
2. In a large skillet, mix sugar, syrup and water together. Cook at a medium-high heat, stirring regularly. Heat until the mixture has a hard ball consistency. heat up to 250-265 degrees or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a ridgid ball.
3. Once mixture is at hard ball consistency, add raw peanuts. (They will pop a little). When the mixture starts to turn a light clear-brown, as if it’s starting to burn, remove from stove. Add soda and stir. Mixture will foam up.
4. Spoon out onto the unbuttered foil, making sure it’s even height. When it’s cooled, it can be broken into small pieces.
