Peanut Brittle

1     cup  Sugar
1/2  cup  White corn syrup
1     cup  Roasted, salted peanuts
1     tsp  Butter
1     tsp  Vanilla
1     tsp  Soda

In 1 1/2 quart casserole, stir sugar and syrup together. Heat 5 to 6 minutes in 
small microwave. Stir in peanuts. Heat for 4 to 5 minutes, stirring after 2 or 2
1/2 minutes. Add butter and vanilla to syrup, blending well. Heat for 2 or 3 
minutes. Peanuts will be slightly browned and syrup very hot. Add soda and stir 
gently until light and foamy. Pour mixture onto lightly buttered cookie sheet. 
Cool for 1 hour. When cool, break in to small pieces and store in airtight 
container. Ziploc bag is the best to store the candy in.
