I had some trouble getting the brittle to set properly. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

This brittle is a little too sweet for my taste, but I think it would be perfect for people who like their peanut brittle on the sweeter side.

I love the way the sesame seeds toast in the oven. It gives the brittle a beautiful golden color.

I was a little hesitant to try this recipe because I'm not a big fan of sesame seeds, but I'm so glad I did! The sesame seeds add a subtle nutty flavor that really complements the peanuts.
