1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
2 cups salted peanuts
1 teaspoon butter
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
In a 2-qt. microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. Heat, uncovered, on
high for 3 minutes; stir. Heat 2-1/4 minutes longer. Stir in peanuts, butter and
cinnamon. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 20-30 seconds or until mixture
turns a light amber color (mixture will be very hot). Quickly stir in baking soda

sheet and spread with a metal spatula. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until firm;
break into small pieces. Store in an airtight container.
