Zubereitung von Chocolate Covered Peanut Brittle
- Line an 11x17 inch baking sheet or jelly roll pan with parchment paper and lightly grease with cooking spray.
- In a large microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup granulated sugar and ½ cup light corn syrup. Microwave on high for 4 minutes.
- Add 1 cup roasted peanuts (or your favorite nuts) and microwave on high for 3 minutes.
- Stir in 4 tablespoons (½ stick) unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract. Microwave on high for 2 minutes.
- Quickly stir in ½ teaspoon baking soda. The mixture will lighten in color.
- Immediately pour the hot mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and spread evenly to about ⅛ inch thickness.
- Let cool for 1 minute.
- Sprinkle 1 cup semi-sweet chocolate chips over the warm brittle.
- Let the chocolate soften slightly (about 5 minutes).
- Spread the softened chocolate evenly over the brittle using a spatula or knife.
- Optionally, sprinkle with extra chopped peanuts.
- Let the brittle cool completely until the chocolate is no longer sticky (at least 30 minutes).
- Break the brittle into pieces. Store in an airtight container in a cool, dry place for up to several weeks (if it lasts that long!).
