Ingredients:

Directions:

  1. Warning - Mixture gets very hot! Use Oven Mitts and 1 quart size Pyrex measuring cups and Teflon spatulas for the mixture.
  2. Notes: I use 3 of the 1 quart measuring cups and pre measure all the ingredients in batches of 4.
  3. You may have to make a few batches to get the cook times right for your Microwave - Record the times for next Batches.
  4. Stir together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup white corn syrup in 1 quart Pyrex measuring cup.
  5. Microwave on HI 4 minutes (5 min for 600 watt oven). Mixture should be bubbly and sugar dissolved (adjust up in 15 second interals up from 4 minutes if not Bubbly and all sugar dissolved).
  6. Remove HOT mixture from Microwave and quickly stir in 1 1/4 cup raw peanuts.
  7. Microwave on HI 4 minutes (5 min for 600 watt oven). If peanuts burn or smell burnt adjust this time down in 15 Second intervals.
  8. Remove HOT mixture and quickly stir in 1/2 Tablespoon Butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla.
  9. Microwave on HI 2 minutes (2 1/2 min for 600 watt oven).
  10. Remove HOT mixture and quickly stir in 1/2-teaspoon Baking soda.
  11. Mixture will foaming - Look for consistancy of the mix before pouring on a cookie sheet sprayed with Pam to cool.
  12. More notes - Running hot water over the cups will dissolve the hardened mixture - Make sure to dry completely before adding new mixture.
