Peanut Brittle



by Ernest Freeman

2 c. white sugar
1 c. white corn syrup
1 c. water
2 c. peanuts
2 T. butter
1 t. vanilla
2 t. baking soda

Cook sugar, syrup and water to hard crack.  Add peanuts.  Remove from heat.  Add vanilla, butter and then baking soda.  Mix lightly.  Pour on marble slab to cool.

~This recipe has actually been doubled from the original.  Ernest must have liked it enough to do a double batch every time.
