I did another recipe and had one out of 4 that after placing in tin found out it all stuck together in one big blob. This recipe on the other hand, I have made about ten times. I can't screw it up! I actually go the whole minute on the end, for a total of 8 minutes, nice and roasty. Thanks for such an easy brittle recipe.

That must be it, I have a VERY large pyrex measureing'" cup "with a handle... & it might be my mrcowave. Thanks for walking with me through this!
I'm getting there... with your help the color was right & it foamed & got a little lighter. So far, after a half hour, it has not become "brittle" yet.

The entire thing should become solid within less than 10 minutes or something has been done wrong. Make sure your Microwave is set on "high". Mix together 1 cup sugar and 1/2 cup light corn syrup. Cook in microwave for 4 minutes. Add peanuts. Then cook for 3 to 4 more intervals for 1 minute each time, stirring quickly in between intervals. Add the butter, vanilla, and baking soda - stir, then put onto baking sheet prepared with nonstick spray. Ten minutes later it should be solid.

If you have a heavier gauge bowl, or a weaker microwave, you may need to increase the 4 minute additional cooking period by up to a minute or so.

Excellent!
I made 2 batches,( useing another persons utube tutorial) last night that failed.( not crispy, more like taffy). I didn't even feed it to the dogs, afraid it would pull their teeth out!) You have shed some light on what I need to change. ( the 1 min. segments at the end). Also what a great technique to boil the water for quick cleanup!
I'm going to try yours today & will let you know how it turned out. Thanks, I was about to give up!
