Today I was going to go to the Festival Of Trees with Jenn, but she wasn't feeling well and neither was Gk. We really didn't get much sleep last night with his stuffy nose and sad little cough. So after we took a nap, I decided to try making my Grandma's Peanut Brittle. It is a super easy recipe, and really yummy! Best of all you can just make it in the microwave. Here it is if you wanna try it!
I cup granular sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup
microwave for 3 minutes
add 1 cup peanuts
microwave for 3 minutes
add 1 T butter
1 t vanilla
microwave for 2 minutes
add 1 t baking soda
pour on cookie sheet/aluminum foil
Pretty easy and you should only dirty one dish so the cleanup is super easy.
Making this really made me miss my Grandma, she was such a good cook and a wonderful woman! Her house always had home made candy and treats. And she let us have pop with lunch.
Anyway I think she really would have laughed at my first attempt...
Oops...
I really know better!
