This brittle is the best brittle I have ever tasted, and is just like the brittle I grew up on! I did not have raw peanuts, so I just used Planters roasted lightly salted nuts. I added a tbls of butter when I added the nuts, and then a tsp. of vanilla with the baking soda. I popped the mix in the freezer and it hardened up VERY quickly (it's very humid where I live). I will definitely be making this many more times, and using it for Christmas gifts! :-) Thank you for sharing this wonderful recipe!

I just tried making this recipe and followed the recipe exactly as written. It was a total failure and had to be thrown out. What a waste of ingredients and time expended!

Wonderful!! I have always been afraid of making candy, but this recipe was SO easy. The trick is the hair thing. Trying to keep the hubby out of it as we speak, but I keep hearing that foil rustling in the kitchen every time I loose sight of him! Thanks for this recipe!

Very Dissapointing recipe. I boiled the sugar, corn syrup and H20 just like the recipe called for, but i didnt have a thermomemter. I boiled it for 20 mins. I tried doing the spoon thing and my mix never got quite that thick. then after cooling, it never hardened. I added vanilla, salt and butter to this recipe but according to other readers theirs was successful. i was making it for work so i was extremely upset it didnt turn out. Will not be making this again.

Great brittle and very easy! I doubled the recipe and sustituted chopped macadamia nuts instead of the peanuts. Terrific! My candy thermometer was broken so I used the "hair method" described in this recipe and it worked just great! Will definitely make again, especially for the holiday gift giving! Thanks!

I have made peanut brittle for fundraisers for years, but lost my recipe. I found this one and added a half teaspoon of salt. It literally is very simple. I have also made it with toasted coconut. Its very tasty that way!

It was tasty for sure! I found it had too many peanuts for my taste, and I did add a couple tablespoons of butter with the nuts as suggested by others. It was a bit TOO crunchy, but I'm not sure if that was my fault or not. :)

AWESOME flavor! It was my first time making candy and it came out great BUT what I didn't really think about was that living here in New Orleans where it is always humid *despite it being December) the candy wouldn't 'set' so I put it in the freezer for a bit and it hardened right up!! Everyone loves it! Thanks for the recipe!!

Very good and easy. I could not find raw peanuts so I used regular canned, salted, spanish peanuts and they worked fine. WARNING! This foams up a lot! Use a pan that will allow your contents to at least double without spilling over. I also sprayed the foil with cooking spray and used the spread out and break apart tecnique. Yummy Stuff. I am making more to give out for the holidays.

This is a perfect brittle recipe. I made 3 batches in under an hour. For some kick I added 1/2 tablespoon of chili flakes to one of the batches....delicious.

OMG!!!! I have never made Peanut Brittle before and will not look for a different recipe. The only thing I did different is add vanilla. I just feel every desert needs vanilla extract. This was simple and delicous. Gone as fast as I could break it up and I didn't even know they liked peanut brittle.

Perfect! Easy, and if you follow the instructions you do not need a candy thermometer. Do not leave this unattended... it does cook quickly! I liked taking mine to the edge of burned... nice and brown.

Excellent! I had to make two more batches right away because my husband ate it so fast! It tastes just like in the stores...even better! I did try to double the recipe, but found that it was easier to work with the smaller batches. It would make a great christmas gift!
