Directions: |
Directions:Put the following ingredients in a large ( I use a two-quart) glass bowl and stir together. Just leave the wood spoon in the bowl. » 1 cup raw peanuts » 1 cup sugar » 1/2 cup Karo syrup
Cook 9 minutes on High (microwave in the 5th Wheel) or 7 1/2 on High (microwave @ home)—this is kind of hard to judge as it depends on the wattage of the microwave. If the first batch doesn’t harden add about 1 1/2 minutes. If it seems burnt, reduce first cooking time by about 1 1/2 minutes. (Advantium Microwave is 7.5 minute total time).
Don’t remove the bowl. Just quickly add: » 1 tsp butter » 1 tsp vanilla.
Stir a little with a wood spoon and leave the spoon in the bowl.
Cook 1 1/2 min on high. (Advantium Microwave is 1 minute).
Carefully remove the bowl from microwave and stir in: » 1 tsp soda
Use the wooden spoon to empty the mixture onto a greased cookie sheet or pizza pan. Don’t try to spread it—-it’ll spread by itself. (Other recipies suggest pre-warming the pan so that it levels out better). Let it cool, then remove it from the pan and break into pieces.
