Peanut Brittle - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/2 c. water
1 c. white Karo syrup
2 c. sugar
1 1/2 c. raw peanuts
1 heaping tsp. soda

Preparation

Bring water, syrup and sugar to a boil.
Add peanuts.
Cook to 295\u00b0.
Add soda and stir.
(Cook in 3-quart boiler because when you add soda it will foam up.)
Pour on greased cookie sheets.
As soon as the edges begin to cool, start pulling and stretching the candy as you would taffy.
Break off edges as they cool and continue pulling center.
