Zubereitung von 1200 Watt Microwave Peanut Brittle
- Line a baking sheet with foil or parchment paper and lightly grease with butter or cooking spray.
- In a 1-cup measuring cup, combine 1 tablespoon molasses and enough light corn syrup to fill the cup (approximately 5 tablespoons).
- In an 8-cup Pyrex bowl, combine the corn syrup mixture and 1 cup granulated white sugar. Microwave on high for 2 minutes, remove, stir well, and microwave for another 1 minute.
- Remove from the microwave and add 1 cup of unsalted peanuts. Stir into the bubbling sugar mixture and microwave for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the microwave and stir in 2 tablespoons of unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Microwave for 1 minute.
- Remove from the microwave and quickly stir in 1 teaspoon of baking soda. The mixture will become white and foamy. Immediately pour onto the prepared baking sheet and spread thinly.
- Let cool completely at room temperature or speed up the process by cooling in the refrigerator.
- To easily clean the mixing bowl, soak it in hot, soapy water.
- For an extra touch of warmth, add 1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon to the sugar in step 3. To amp up the heat, include both cinnamon and 1/3 teaspoon of cayenne pepper along with the sugar.
