A few of you have asked for "my" Peanut Brittle recipe and I'm only to happy to pass it on to you. Once you have made this recipe successfully you are expected to claim it and name it as your own :)
Also, if you would be so kind, let me know how yours turned out...

COOKING NOTES*
· Each microwave cooks differently. If your first batch smells burnt after the first cooking step, pitch it and begin a new batch reducing the first step time in 15 second increments. By example, due to our microwave's output, our first step cooking time is a full 6 minutes. Your cooking time will be between 6 to 6 1/2 minutes.
· Do not reduce the second step cooking time, it will remain a full 2 MINUTES.
· Use pot holders when handling the cooking bowl. It gets very HOT!

Yay! So glad you posted this... can't wait to try it!
I too thought about asking...thanks so much for posting.
Looking forward to making this, do you do the first step in increments or all 6 minutes at once.
Kathy:
All 6 to 6 1/2 minutes at once. The second step is only for 2 minutes.

I made this tonight and it came out perfect. It's the perfect consistency when you bite into it. Will have to make more tomorrow, because I know it will not last LOL Thanks again for sharing.
Does it come with a 3 month trial period with Candyholics Anonymous because I can see trouble here for me......
