In a 2-qt. microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. Heat, uncovered, on high for 3 minutes; stir. Heat 2-1/4 minutes longer. Stir in peanuts, butter and cinnamon.
Microwave, uncovered, on high until mixture turns a light amber color (mixture will be very hot), 20-30 seconds. Quickly stir in baking soda and vanilla until light and foamy.
Immediately pour onto a greased baking sheet and spread with a metal spatula. Refrigerate until firm, about 20 minutes; break into small pieces. Store in an airtight container.

This recipe works best in a 1,100-watt microwave.

Fun to make because when you add the baking soda and vanilla to the hot mixture it sizzles and steams! Another favorite of mine at Christmas!
