Incredibly quick and easy, but absolutely delicious. I have a peanut allergy and absolutely loved this cashew brittle. You'll want to make it again and again.

Time 35m

Yield 24

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ tablespoons butter, or as needed
2 cups white sugar
1 cup light corn syrup
3 cups unsalted cashews, a mixture of whole and chopped
2 teaspoons butter
1 teaspoon salt
2 teaspoons baking powder
2 teaspoons vanilla extract

Steps:

  • Spread 1 1/2 tablespoons butter all over a rimmed baking sheet until heavily coated.
  • Stir sugar and corn syrup together in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high, uncovered, for 4 1/2 minutes. Stir and microwave for 3 minutes longer.
  • Stir in cashews, 2 teaspoons butter, and salt. Microwave until mixture turns a light amber color, 1 minute to 1 minute 40 seconds; mixture will be very hot. Quickly stir in baking powder and vanilla extract until light and well mixed. Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet immediately and spread with a metal spatula.
  • Place in the refrigerator until chilled, at least 20 minutes. Break into small pieces.

I was really excited to make this cashew brittle, but it turned out to be a disaster. The brittle was too thick and the cashews were burnt. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

This cashew brittle is delicious! The only thing I would change is to add a little bit more salt. Otherwise, it's perfect.
