Steps:
- 1. If you don't have a silicone baking sheet (I love mine!), butter (or use cooking spray to coat) a cookie sheet. Set aside.
- 2. In a 1-1/2 quart microwave-safe casserole, stir together the sugar and syrup. Microwave on HIGH for 4 minutes
- 3. Stir in the peanuts, then microwave on HIGH for 2 1/2 to 4 minutes. WATCH TO KEEP FROM OVER-BROWNING! When it starts to brown, take it out of the microwave immediately!
- 4. Add the margarine and vanilla. Microwave on HIGH for 30 seconds.
- 5. Add the baking soda. Stir until light and foamy. Quickly spread THIN on the prepared cookie sheet. Cool 30-60 minutes.
- 6. Break into pieces and store airtight. Makes one pound of peanut brittle.
- 7. Peanut brittle also makes a great gift!
