Microwave Peanut Brittle
This microwave peanut brittle is a wonderful recipe, but you should only make it once a year because you can't stop eating it!

light corn syrup
½
cup
salted peanuts
1
cup
butter
1
teaspoon
vanilla extract
1
teaspoon

 Grease a cookie sheet; set aside. Combine sugar and corn syrup in a 2-quart microwave-safe bowl.
  Microwave on high for 4 minutes, stirring halfway through cooking time. Stir in peanuts and microwave on high for 3 1/2 minutes more. Stir in butter and vanilla: microwave for 1 1/2 minutes.
  Stir in baking soda until light and foamy; immediately pour onto the prepared cookie sheet and spread thin. Cool completely. Break into pieces, and store in an airtight container.
