Ok so I made several batches of this, this past holiday season and had a few requests for the recipe so here you go. Also this is something my mom and grandma used to make every holiday season and so this always reminds me of her. Most people call it peanut brittle when they eat it, but my family always called it Toffee. I hope you all enjoy this, but don't eat to much!
1 Cup White Sugar
1/2 Cup Water
1 and 1/2 Sticks REAL Butter cut into 6 pieces do not use margarine
12 oz Deluxe Mixed Nuts
1 Teaspoon Vanilla
Do not rush this recipe it takes a little bit of time and patience
Do not use any kind of coated pan
MUST use a wooden spoon
Do not use any kind of metal or plastic spoon
Heat Sugar and Water in Medium Saucepan on Medium or Medium Low heat just until Sugar melts add butter 1 piece at a time and continually stir until melted then add next piece and repeat until all butter is added.
Bring to a boil and add in a candy thermometer, while this is cooking pour the vanilla over the top of the nuts and set aside
once the thermometer reads between soft crack and hard crack add in the nuts and fast pour onto greased or buttered cookie sheet and let cool.
Let me know if you have any questions!! Enjoy! Aley
