Cashew Brittle

I found a very quick and easy recipe for Peanut Brittle on Cooks.com. Instead of peanuts, I used raw cashews-it's delicious!




1 cup of sugar
1/2 cup of light corn syrup
1 cup raw cashews
1/8 tsp salt
1 tbsp butter
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp baking soda

Combine first four ingredients in a 2 qt microwavable dish/bowl,and microwave on high on for 4 minutes. Stir and microwave on high for 4 more minutes. Add butter,and microwave on high for 2 minutes. Stir in vanilla and baking soda until light and foamy.

Pour onto a parchment covered baking sheet (you can use a buttered sheet instead if you wish) and spread mixture as thin as possible. It will harden as it cools. Break into pieces and enjoy!
