Simply the BEST peanut brittle. I have used this recipe for several years. I do add extra peanuts and use 1 Tablespoon of butter. It's always good.

The brittle itself is 5 star all the way... however the mess hardened candy creates knocks it down a notch

Although the wattage for the microwave is not listed, please watch this recipe. My microwave had burnt the sugar completely before the 4 minutes was up. I ended up with a badly burnt lumpy peanut mess. Just as a guess I would suggest using 1/2 the cook times listed if your microwave is over 700 watts. I am not recommending this time, as I have not tried again, but after 4 minutes on high, mine was burnt to a crisp. Not toooooo happy with this one.

This is a great recipe - just got through making 3 batches and will be making more later this week for Christmas gifts. I did add about 1/2 cup more peanuts.

If I could give this 6 stars, I would. It is EXCELLENT! We made five batches and put in a pretty container for a Christmas present. Be sure to tilt the cookie sheet to spread instead of spreading with a knife. Spreading with a knife destroys the crunchy texture. Very addictive!!!

This actually works! I adjusted the microwave times based on others' recommendations for a 1000 watt microwave-3 and 1/2 minutes for the first one, 3 minutes for the second, and a minute for the third. It came out perfect!

Everyone always raves whenever I make this! One warning: cool down the glass container before washing it; I broke a thick glass measuring cup from heating the mixture then trying to wash it too soon between batches!
