Chocolate Covered Peanut Brittle image

I got the idea for making this from See's Awesome Peanut Brittle Bar. It is really easy to make in the microwave and if you don't like chocolate, you can leave it off for great peanut brittle. You can also use other nuts as well.

Time 2h15m

Yield 24 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups sugar
1 cup corn syrup
2 cups dry roasted salted peanuts
2 tablespoons butter
2 teaspoons vanilla
2 teaspoons baking soda
1 1/2 cups chocolate chips

Steps:

  • My microwave is 1150 watts. If yours is different you will need to adjust your cooking times.
  • Cover an 11 x 17 cookie sheet or jelly roll pan (needs to have sides), with parchment or wax paper and spray with cooking spray, set aside.
  • Combine the sugar and corn syrup and cook for 4 minutes on high.
  • Add the peanuts or nuts of your choice (if you like more nuts add another cup) and cook for 3 minutes on high.
  • Add the butter and vanilla and cook for 2 minutes on high.
  • Add the baking soda and stir well. the mixture will turn a lighter color at this point.
  • Pour immediately onto the prepared pan and spread out quickly.
  • Let set for 1 minute, then sprinkle the chocolate chips over the top.
  • Allow the chocolate to soften (approximately 5 - 10 minutes). Then spread out to cover the brittle. If you wish you made sprinkle chopped peanuts (or nut of your choice on top).
  • Let stand until chocolate is no longer sticky (usually about 2 hours). Then break into pieces.
  • Will keep will for weeks if stored in cool, dry place. If it lasts that long!

This recipe was a disaster! The peanut brittle was burnt and the chocolate coating was too thick. I don't recommend this recipe to anyone.

This is the best chocolate-covered peanut brittle I've ever had! It's so crispy and flavorful, and the chocolate coating is perfect. I'll definitely be making this again and again.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The peanut brittle was crispy and flavorful, and the chocolate coating was a nice touch. However, I think it could have been better if I had used a higher quality chocolate.

The peanut brittle was easy to make, but it didn't turn out as crispy as I would have liked. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

This peanut brittle was a bit too sweet for my taste, but it was still good. I think I'll try using dark chocolate next time to balance out the sweetness.

I'm not usually a fan of peanut brittle, but this recipe changed my mind. The brittle was crispy and flavorful, and the chocolate coating added a nice touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.

This peanut brittle was a hit! It was the perfect combination of sweet and salty, and the chocolate coating added a nice touch of richness. I will definitely be making this again.
