Easy Microwave Peanut Brittle

Desserts

This microwave peanut brittle is super easy to make and tastes great. No need for a candy thermometer!

Ingredients

cooking spray
1 cup white sugar
½ cup light corn syrup
1 ½ cups peanuts, or more to taste
1 tablespoon butter
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Description

Grease a baking sheet and a wooden spoon with cooking spray.
Mix sugar and corn syrup together in a microwaveable bowl safe for high temperatures.
Heat sugar mixture in the microwave on high for 5 minutes.
Stir peanuts and butter into sugar mixture. Heat in the microwave until mixture turns a caramel color, 3 to 4 minutes. Mix baking soda and vanilla 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.
