Microwave Oven Peanut Brittle

INGREDIENTS:

1 1/2 cups dry roasted peanuts 1 cup white sugar 1/2 cup light corn syrup 1 pinch salt (optional)

1 tablespoon butter 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1 teaspoon baking soda

DIRECTIONS:

1.	Grease a baking sheet, and set aside. In a glass bowl, combine peanuts, sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Cook in microwave for 6 to 7 minutes on High (700 W); mixture should be bubbly and peanuts browned. Stir in butter and vanilla; cook 2 to 3 minutes longer.
2.	Quickly stir in baking soda, just until mixture is foamy. Pour immediately onto wax paper (tried a greased glass dish..BAD IDEA). Let cool 15 minutes, or until set. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.
