RECIPE​

Ingredients

• 1/2 lb. salted butter
• 1/2 cup light corn syrup
• 1 cup granulated sugar
• 1 heaping cup raw peanuts (skins on)
• 1 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 1/2 tsp. baking soda

1. In a large skillet or medium saucepan, melt butter on a low setting. While butter is melting, line a medium sheet pan with aluminum foil.
2. Once butter is melted, pour about 3 tbsp. on a lined pan and spread it around; this is where you will pour the cooked candy.
3. Add remaining ingredients except vanilla to the saucepan with butter and cook it until it is crack stage. The best way to tell is to use the sheet pan--once the candy forms strings on a spoon, pour a little bit on the buttered pan and once cooled, see if it is hard like candy.
4. Once this stage is reached, add baking soda and vanilla and stir well, then pour out onto buttered sheet pan.
5. Spread thin onto the pan and let cool completely, then break into small pieces and store in an air-tight container.
