INGREDIENTS
| 2 | c | Sugar |
| 1 | c | Light corn syrup |
| 1/2 | c | Water |
| 1/2 | ts | Salt |
| 3 | c | Peanuts; raw, shelled, skins off if possible |
| 2 | tb | Butter |
| 2 | ts | Baking soda |
INSTRUCTIONS
In a large, heavy saucepan heat the water, syrup, sugar and salt to boiling. Add peanuts, reduce heat to medium, and, stirring constantly, cook to hard-crack stage (293-300 F). Add butter, remove from heat and add baking soda. At this point the mixture will foam up considerably, so be careful. Stirring rapidly, pour onto a non-stick baking sheet (or a marble slab), spreading to 1/4 inch thickness. When cool, break in to pieces; store in an air-tight container.
