My dad found this recipe in 1994 and began making this every year, batch after batch, after batch. He thought I was crazy for asking him to copy the recipe out for me (I wanted HIS handwriting) but he did it. He made this such a special memory for our entire family. It's easy, made in microwave and soooo very good. I lost my dad to cancer in 2008 and now my eldest son is wanting to take on the tradition. Here's to you Daddy. Ingredients:
1 cup sugar |
1/2 cup white corn syrup |
1 cup dry roasted salted peanut |
1 teaspoon butter |
1 teaspoon vanilla |
1 teaspoon baking soda |
Directions:
1. In 2 quart microwave safe bowl stir together the sugar & corn syrup. 2. Microwave on high for 4 minutes. Stir in peanuts and microwave on high for another 4 minutes. Add butter & vanilla, stirring well. Microwave on high for additional 2 minutes. 3. Stir in baking soda until light and foamy. 4. Quickly pour mixture onto a lightly greased cookie sheet or slab marble. Let cool for 1 hour - break into pieces and store in tight container. |
