Super easy to make and tastes great. No need for a candy thermometer! Ingredients:
cooking spray |
1 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup light corn syrup |
1 1/2 cups peanuts, or more to taste |
1 tablespoon butter |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Spray a baking sheet and a wooden spoon with cooking spray.
2. Mix sugar and corn syrup together in a microwaveable bowl safe for high temperatures.
3. Heat sugar mixture in microwave on high for 5 minutes.
4. Stir peanuts and butter into sugar mixture. Heat in microwave until mixture becomes a caramel color, 3 to 4 minutes.
5. Mix baking soda and vanilla extract into syrup until smooth and foam has dissipated. Spread candy onto the prepared baking sheet using the sprayed wooden spoon. Work quickly; candy hardens fast. Let stand until cool. Break into pieces to serve.
