PEANUT BRITTLE

Kathy Baldwin, Vic Baldwin, Recipe #24 (mom's recipe)

2 cups sugar
1 cup white corn syrup
½ cup water
2 cups raw peanuts
½ cube butter
2 tsp soda

Put sugar, water and syrup in pan and bring to a boil over high heat. Turn to medium high heat and continue cooking until it reaches 264 degrees or soft crackle.
Add raw peanuts and cook 10 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat, stir up the peanuts, then add butter and soda.
Stir well, then put out on an ungreased shallow pan immediately.
Cool and break in pieces.

This recipe is from my mom, Guila Olsen – her note: very good candy
