SPICY PEANUT BRITTLE
My Spicy Peanut Brittle recipe starts with the sweet and ends with the heat. It's a kicked-up version of traditional peanut brittle with no candy thermometer needed.

Steps:
- Add the sugar, corn syrup, water, butter, vanilla, and cayenne a large stovetop pan.
- Stir the mixture with a wooden spoon or a spatula just once to ensure that everything is incorporated.
- Cook the mixture at medium heat. If you see that some of the sugar is not dissolved, just push it down with a rubber spatula. But do not stir the mixture. If you must, you can just swirl the pan but it's best to just let it make a golden brown caramel.
- Cook the caramel until it is a golden brown color and it coats the back of a spoon without dripping off.
- Add the baking soda and stir in the peanuts. You'll need to do this step quickly as the baking soda will cause the mixture to really bubble up.
- Stir with a wooden spoon.
- Quickly pour onto the baking sheet and let it sit at room temperature for 15 minutes.
GAYLE'S SPICY PEANUT BRITTLE
I was experimenting with some ideas that I had for making candy for my holiday baskets, and came up with this twist on peanut brittle. I loved it, and found it so addicting, that I had to send it all home with my stepdaughter.

Steps:
- In a large heavy pan combine: sugar, Karo Syrup and water.
- Boil this mixture until it reaches 238 degrees on a candy thermometer.
- Then add raw peanuts. 1/4 tsp salt. Continue to cook, stirring frequently.
- Continue cooking and stirring until thermometer reaches 290 degrees - hard crack - remove from the burner and add: vanilla and butter.
- Quickly stir together and add: baking soda and cayenne.
- Mix well and, working quickly, pour onto buttered cookie sheet. Use two if you want it super thin. Spread quickly and let cool.
- Break into pieces and store in airtight tin or canister.
- Gnote: I have doubled this recipe but mostly I make a batch and a half as it fits in the pan better when boiling up.
- I have made this with cashews and other nuts, too. Good stuff and not hard on the teeth!

PEANUT BRITTLE
Here is a recipe for the easiest candy to make: brittle. The only thing even remotely tricky about it is getting the sugar to the tint of brown you want -- not too light, and definitely not too dark, which can happen in a flash. You can use any nut you want with this, but do add some salt if you use unsalted nuts.

Steps:
- Use a bit of butter to grease a baking sheet, preferably one with a low rim. Combine sugar and 2 tablespoons water in a heavy skillet and turn heat to medium. Stir until smooth, then cook, adjusting heat so that mixture bubbles steadily. Stir occasionally until mixture turns golden brown (which it may do rather suddenly).
- Stir in the peanuts and a large pinch of salt, if desired. Pour mixture onto greased baking sheet and spread out. Cool for about a half-hour, then break into pieces. (You can score brittle with a knife when it has solidified slightly but not yet turned hard; that way, it will break into even squares.) Store in a covered container for up to two weeks.

PEPPERY PEANUT BRITTLE
A touch of hot pepper sauce gives a unique zip to this crunchy confection from Janie Sanders of Vicksburg, Mississippi. "We call it blistering brittle," she says. The mixture reaches hard-crack stage in the microwave, so you don't even need a candy thermometer for this brittle.
