1. mmmmm

I made peanut brittle yesterday. I have a feeling I will need to make more before Xmas day because somehow it's been disappearing.

5. certainly

in a 3 qt. saucepan combine:

3 cups sugar
1 cup milk
dash of salt

stir.... then put on the burner on medium heat and do not stir again until it comes off the stove. Use candy thermometer to gauge temperature. This will need to boil to one notch above "soft ball" stage.

(While it's on the stove, it's important that you get everything else ready... so you have it all ready to go once the sugar comes to temperature.)

grease (or use cooking spray) a 9x13 glass baking dish.


measure out:
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup marshmallow fluff
3 tbs. butter or margarine
1 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 cup choppped nuts (if desired)


After the sugar mixture comes to temperature, stir in the remaining ingredients, taking care to make sure the fluff and peanut butter are mixed in well.

then pour it into the baking dish and let it set a couple of hours.


ENJOY!

8. no, I didn't

a candy thermometer is marked.... soft ball.... one notch above that. It looks to be about 245 on my thermometer
