I made a few batches of this microwave peanut brittle recipe for Christmas gifts, but it would also be a great Superbowl snack or Valentine’s surprise for someone you love, too. I wish I could give proper credit, but I don’t even remember the make of the oven. The microwave oven came with a cooking class (which is funny to think about now) and Jim and I went. Immediately pour onto lightly greased baking sheet to 1/4 inch thickness. Add baking soda and quickly stir until light and foamy. Microwave 1 minute longer on 50 PERCENT POWER. Way back when microwaves were new, and roughly the size of dorm room refrigerators, my mom took the plunge and bought our first one. 1500 watt oven: Microwave 4 minutes on 50 PERCENT POWER stir microwave 4 minutes longer on 50 PERCENT POWER stir in butter and vanilla.

Besides peanuts, the main ingredients are corn syrup and sugar.

Microwave on HIGH until peanuts are lightly browned, about 1 to 2 minutes longer. Stir in butter and vanilla until combined. Stir in peanuts and microwave on HIGH until the mixture is light brown, about 3 to 5 minutes longer. Mix thoroughly and microwave on HIGH for 4 minutes. I’m the first to admit it isn’t the healthiest recipe. In a deep microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. This peanut brittle recipe has been knocking around in my recipe box since the early 1980’s.
