This peanut brittle is a little too sweet for my taste, but it's still good. I think I'll try using a different type of sweetener next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my peanut brittle turned out really crumbly. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

This peanut brittle is a bit too hard for my taste, but it still has a good flavor. I think I'll try cooking it for a shorter amount of time next time.

I'm not a big fan of peanut brittle, but this recipe is pretty good. It's not too hard or too soft, and the peanuts are nice and crunchy.
