Steps:
- Line a rimmed baking sheet with foil and grease with nonstick cooking spray.
- Stir together the sugar, corn syrup and 1/2 cup water in a medium saucepan fitted with a candy/deep-fry thermometer. Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then continue to boil until it's golden brown and it reaches 340 degrees F, about 15 minutes.
- Working quickly, remove the pan from the heat and stir in the butter and baking soda until smooth (it will foam and bubble up). Stir in the peanuts until evenly distributed amongst the sugar mixture.
- Pour onto the prepared baking sheet and quickly smooth with a rubber spatula into a thin and even layer. Let harden uncovered at room temperature until cooled completely. Break into pieces and store in an airtight container.
BRAZILIAN HOMEMADE PEANUT BRITTLE (Pé DE MOLEQUE)
Brazilian homemade peanut brittle is similar to the American peanut brittle recipe, except it is nuttier and more buttery. The addition of baking soda helps to crack it nicely even when it is made in hot and humid weather.

Steps:
- Grease the bottom of a large baking sheet with non-stick cooking spray or butter. Set aside.
- Place the butter, sugar, salt, and light corn syrup in a large non-stick saucepan. Cook over medium heat (large burner), stirring slowly and constantly with a wooden spoon for about 3 minutes.
- As soon as the butter is completely melted and the mixture reaches a pale yellow color, add the peanuts and reduce the heat to medium-low.
- Cook for 13-15 minutes, stirring constantly or until caramel has thickened and peanuts stick onto each other -- as opposed to falling immediately off the lifted wooden spoon.
- Remove mixture from heat and stir in both the vanilla and baking soda until obtaining a homogeneous mixture. Pour the mixture immediately onto the greased baking sheet.
- Place a sheet of parchment paper on top and spread the brittle thin using a rolling pin. Be careful to not get burned. Let the peanut brittle cool completely at room temperature before breaking into 2-inch pieces with your hands. Enjoy!

BRAZIL NUT BRITTLE
I have always loved brazil nuts. My daddy used to buy mixed nuts when I was a child and I used to eat all the brazil nuts before he could get to them...I still love them today. This recipe has the goodness of brazil nuts white and dark chocolate and fudge...So yummy and delicious. You can buy the fudge in the grocery store bakery dept. or make your own....I use the recipe that I have posted for easiest fudge ever. It only take a couple of ingredients...Enjoy

NUT BRITTLE
Although peanut brittle may be the most common variety, you can also use other whole nuts such as cashews, hazelnuts, almonds, or pecans, as well as toasted pumpkin seeds. When giving as a gift, package this nut brittle block with cellophane, and include a small hammer and bow.

Steps:
- Brush a 9-by-13-inch rimmed baking sheet with butter. Combine sugar, corn syrup, salt, and 3/4 cup water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring until sugar has dissolved. Wash down sides of pan with a pastry brush dipped in water to prevent any crystals from forming. Cook, swirling pan occasionally, until mixture reaches the soft-ball stage on a candy thermometer (238 degrees).
- Stir in the nuts; continue to cook, stirring often so the nuts do not burn, until the mixture is golden amber in color. Remove from heat.
- Carefully stir in vanilla and baking soda. The mixture will foam up in the pan. Pour the mixture onto the prepared baking sheet, and quickly spread with an oiled metal spatula. Set aside until completely cool. Break into pieces to serve. Brittle can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature up to 1 month.

Steps:
- Line a baking tray with baking parchment. Melt the sugar in a medium frying pan over a medium heat for 4-5 mins until caramelised - it should be a dark amber colour. Don't stir, as this causes the sugar to crystallise - instead, tilt the pan slowly so the sugar melts evenly.
- Add the peanuts, stir with a wooden spoon, then quickly and carefully tip onto the prepared tray. Immediately sprinkle over the sea salt flakes and leave to cool until set. Will keep for several weeks in an airtight container.

When was it, exactly, that caramel became a fancy food, encountered only in restaurants or specialty shops? Your grandmother probably thought nothing of making it at home. Allow your homemade caramel sauce to harden and enjoy this nut brittle.
