Dog Peanut Brittle Recipe 435

Steps:

• Grease a large cookie sheet. Set aside.
• In a heavy 2 quart saucepan, over medium heat, bring to a boil sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Stir in peanuts. Set candy thermometer in place, and continue cooking. Stir frequently until temperature reaches 300 degrees F (150 degrees C), or until a small amount of mixture dropped into very cold water separates into hard and brittle threads.
• Remove from heat; immediately stir in butter and baking soda; pour at once onto cookie sheet. With 2 forks, lift and pull peanut mixture into rectangle about 14x12 inches; cool. Snap candy into pieces.

Steps:

• Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil, 10 ½ x 15 ½.
• Cover with graham crackers (whole honey graham crackers).
• Chop 1 cup pecans and sprinkle evenly over crackers.
• In a boiler, melt 1 stick butter and 1 stick of margarine (only this combination will do!).
• Add ½ cup sugar, stirring constantly
• Boil for exactly 2 minutes.
• Pour or spoon over crackers and pecan (I find it better to use a big spoon).
• Bake at 350 for approximately 12 minutes.
• Cool and break into pieces.
• 1 box of graham crackers is enough to make 2 batches of brittle.
• You can also try it with Oatmeal Crunch Graham Crackers or Chocolate Graham Crackers.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Combine all ingredients except the peanuts in a food processor until completely mixed. It should form a stiff dough. Press the dough into a jelly roll pan or cookie sheet with edges. Place plastic wrap or parchment paper over the pan and smooth down the mixture to 1/4" thick. Remove and discard wrap or paper. Press the chopped peanuts into the mixture. Use a knife to score the dough into individual sized portions. Bake 30 - 40 minutes or until the edges are golden brown. Cool completely in the pan on a wire rack. Once cool, break apart using the scored lines. Store in a loosely covered container at room temperature/

Steps:

• Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Melt the sugar in a medium frying pan over a medium heat for 4-5 mins until caramelised - it should be a dark amber colour. Don't stir, as this causes the sugar to crystallise - instead, tilt the pan slowly so the sugar melts evenly.
• Add the peanuts, stir with a wooden spoon, then quickly and carefully tip onto the prepared tray. Immediately sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and leave to cool until set. Will keep for several weeks in an airtight container.
