My daughter just gave me some roasted peanuts, and now I found a recipe to match. Thank you :)
I made this as a science project a million years ago...solid turning to liquid turning back to solid...it was the teacher's homework for us...lol (btw, we got extra credit for bringing in a sample for the teacher as proof...lol Great teacher he was!) I have since lost the recipe, and after digging for a long time, found it here! Thank you so much for not adding baking soda or corn syrup...am headed to the kitchen now to do a little science...lol
Hi. Really? That's interesting. How did your science project come out this time?
Thank u for showing this recipe.great way n easy.i m going to try now.
Thank you so much for this simple recipe. I have been looking for this recipe for the whole day since we only have sugar and peanuts as of the moment. 😂😂 thank you again!
You are so welcome. Hope you enjoy.

Cheryl K Thanks Cheryl.
Yummy & simple! Loved the filming on this video. Very funny! Thanks Dave & have a great day :)
marie Savino Hi Marie. Thank you. Hope all is well with you. Are you ready for Christmas?
warning: be sure not to cook it for too long, it will turn bitter.
Once it turning light brown, pour peanut immediately and pour it out
it takes 5-7minute to turn brown. So it depends on the type of pot you use
Good point, May.
Mine didn't turn light brown. It stayed clear. But it was still good.
Thank you man this really helped. My Mamaw loved it and i'm gonna make some for Christmas.
Hope you enjoy! I think you will enjoy it Josh. Let us know.

I Love the fact of less ingredients... especially, corn syrup. Less ingredients..Less calories. Merry Christmas!!! Thank you for the upload!!
Hi. You're very welcome. How did it come out? Merry Christmas to you too.
I always thought peanut brittle was hard and complicated to make thank for this
Hi. No, this one's fairly easy. Hope you try it.
TheCooknShare I tried it but it was a bit to sugary I'll try it again but without as much sugar (it think it was nice)
TheCooknShare gr
I haven't made any brittle as of yet, but was wondering on cleaning up the saucepan after making!
Is there a problem that I may come across?
Thanks
Dave.
Hi. I just boil some hot soapy water in the pot. Hope this helps.
This is a very BASIC peanut brittle. Good peanut brittle has butter and baking soda in it.
Thanks so much. Hope you try it.
And this is exactly what I am looking for.I grew up eating this version of peanut brittle.I knew those street vendors didn't add any corn syrup or baking soda coz they're selling them cheap but yummy
that is my favorite
Hi. Great. Hope you try it.
Best recipe ever. Quick. Delicious. Shared on Facebook. Subscribed. 😀
Hi Angel Wings. Thanks so much. Thanks for sharing and subscribing. Welcome to the channel. Hope you make many recipes and keep commenting.
Yuum!!
Tasbeeh Mahmoud Hi Tasbeeh. Yeah, it's really good.
TheCooknShare can i use almonds or other nuts?
Will be trying some of yours but may improvise on some.
Gerard.
Fantastic. Hope you enjoy it. Let us know.
Help please. I have tried to make this three times. I end up with a thick white granulated mess. What am I doing wrong?
I had the same problem. You might be using a pot that's too small. I had to keep adding water when it kept turning granular until I turned the heat all the way up, but it worked out in the end.
Scratch that. I figured out a much better way. Use a 1 qt pot (with a pan Underneath if your pot is thin).
1 cup sugar
2 tbsp water
1 tsp lemon juice
Let boil and caramelize. If you're worried about the liquidy consistency spread very thin tiny test pieces on some aluminum or something to see if it hardens. Do the test pieces before caramelizes and as you go along.
Make sure you are not adding too much water. Leave the mixture, stirring regularly until you can see it turning golden brown, however long that takes. It simply isn't cooking for long enough. That can vary, depending on the pot you use.
How is it without corn syrup
Can you please answer this? Will it have better/more taste if I added a dash of vanilla?
Hi. I think it would be good with a dash. Hope this helps.
omg so good thx for telling ,e now I'm 11 and I always make this for dessert for my family
Hi. Great. Let us know how it comes out.
+TheCooknShare it came out perfect and delicious
😍
nice video
TO KOOL!!!
I make this with cashews and coconut. Tastes great!
laserguy Hi. That sounds like a great idea. I'm sure it will be great.
Thanks for the lovely recipe I really enjoyed eating them.
I have one question the recipe for me was to sticky. How can I make it so the peanut brittle is not so sticky. Thanks in advance.
Hi. You are so welcome. Yeah, it's really tricky when you are using sugar. What do you mean too sticky. You mean to work with?
Thanks for the video.. I am going to try this. My step mom wants coconut peanut brittle.. Just wondering how much corn syrup and vanilla would you add and when... Thank you! BTW.. Just subscribed.. You have a very calming voice.
Thanks so much. You are so welcome, and welcome to the channel.
I'm thinking about making some right now. You make it look so easy. I wonder if it matters what type of pot or pan you melt the sugar and water in? And when do you put the vanilla in? I'm thinking about adding bacon. So I have to factor in the bacon when do I put it in. And maybe chocolate chips how that affected.
I've always used a pot. You could use a pan, but it might be a bit wide. I would add the extract in with the peanuts. Same with the bacon. Not sure about the chocolate though. I would add it with the rest if you want to try it. Let us know how you make out as I'm curious. Hope this helps.
Great video :)
TheRussianPhenom Hi. Thank you very much.
heloo,how much in grams,2 cups? thank u
You can also mililitres. 1 cup is 250 mililitres.
Yummy!! I would probably try it with sesame coz peanut gives me breakouts...😵
Candy Zhao Hi. You could probably do that. If you do, let us know how it comes out.
Hello. i made the same.but it turned out a bit too hard to bite. anything else i should add in to make it more soft? to eat?
( i had sugar ,,water and peanut)
Hi. You could cut back on the sugar a bit or cut back on the cooking time.
If u put it in the wax paper to cool, will it still work and not stick?
+chanelle okay Hi. I think that would work.
id try making it. and why it doesnt look perfect? wat must br the problem ? u can still see the sugar particle.
allen Durana probably didn't mix it enough before you boiled it
can you use coconut sugar instead? its brown already so how do I know when its ready?
Hi. I have never tried it, but you could. I would just wait for it to caramelize. Hope this helps. Let us know how you make out.
Dugo ilong ko sir. Pero eto yung recipe na hinahanap ko. Thanks
i would recommend adding about two table spoons of butter because i had trouble with it then added the butter and it came out a lot better
Should I add some vanilla?
+Jillian Paige sure
Does anyone know when when peanut brittle was made in the microwave for the 1st time?
Hi Janet. That's a really good question. I'll have to look into that.
i want to try it with pecans and cinnamon :)
Hi Ashley. That sounds like a nice touch. Let us know if you try it.
I tried the recipe today used granulated sugar couldnt get it to caramelise, mixture just went back to sugar,tried caster sugar got same result.What did I do wrong??
Angela Cameron Hi Angela. That's strange. Can you tell me exactly what you did?
TheCooknShare I did the exact way you said, even made sure I used Domino sugar, an hr and half goes by...it never caramelized. I totally wanted to not to have to use Carole Syrup. All that sugar is enough. Disappointed, but I'll figure something out!! Have a great Holiday!!
Fun fact: while the process is very enjoyable and the final product even more so whatever cooking vessel you use will be a bitch to clean
But it’s still worth it
My dad used to make toffees the same way but he added peppermint extract to give more flaver. You should try that next time you make peanut brittle.
Gerard.
Nice touch on that peppermint. Will give it a try for sure, Gerald.
Hi,
So my sugar caramelized then went solid sugar. Any ideas what I did wrong.
Eva C too hot
Add few drops of lemon juice to avoid recrystallisation of sugar
same as the toffiie my dad used to make Added peppermint extract and cinnamin. you should try that next time.
Gerard.
Hi Gerald. The peppermint sounds good. I will have to try that.
@@TheCooknShare
My name is GERARD NOT GERALD.
@@tronalpha9137 😂
Would it turn out the same with brown sugar?
Actually, I think it would be okay.
Can wax paper work for the brittle to sit on? Will it not stick?
Hi Andrea. I think that would be fine. Hope you try it.
Thanks for the recommendation... :)
I made it today & it’s good. I added almonds to mine. Now I am struggling getting it off the spoon & pot very sticky😂
That sounds good. Yes, it is very sticky.
THANKS YOU GOODNESS 🌟 YUMMY PEANUT BRITTLE ❤️🖤💚🤎 FAMILY DAPHNE COTTON ALWAYS 💜,
Hi Daphne. You are so welcome. Hope it turns out well and you enjoy.
We used to call this "peanut toffee" and make it in patty cases.
Ah yes. That is so true. It is good.
Can you help me? Why my peanut burn when i put it in the sugar 😣
Hi. I think you might have the heat too high. Hope this helps.
Hey i tried this recipe but the sugar was not melting i cooked for long but no use
+jawad safi Interesting. I wonder what happened.
I tried this recipe (I doubled the mixture) used heavy stainless pan, on a med to low heat. Got it to the bubbling but it didn’t caramelised 😭😔
Oh no! I wonder what happened.
Me 2 lol mine went to Crystal
whats on baking spray ?
It's usually a form of butter.
+TheCooknShare
aw. ok .. how bout adding baking soda on it ?
+allen Durana
i'd watch other vid. about making peanut brittle and some of them are not putting water .
Not trying to drive you crazy. I'm just truly trying to help. You seem like a very nice guy, also trying to help us "candy lovers" of peanut brittle out, but at the same time, I think by accident you left one ingredient out or you totally have a certain technique that us ladies don't have. Don't forget we ladies like being precise. know every detail. Anyway, I found out on another channel that you should stir constantly and No water needed. Don't worry about the clumps of suger just throw those out and basically stir in the peanuts until well mixed. Although, she didn't add vanilla and butter. Definitely about to experiment at 4:44am, cause my family's party is today. Totally riding on God's strength now. Dealing with hospitals, shopping, last minute everything at this point. But you know, Our God is Awesome!!! He gives us strength outside our own understanding. I got this!! Ok..Hope that vital information helps us all out. Merry Christmas to anyone who reads this message. May your New Year "2017" Be a blessed one!

I dont have white sugar only brown sugar
If it doesn't turn caramel in color, does that mean it isn't cooking long enough?
Ronesha Davis Hi.That would basically be the problem. Hope this helps.
TheCooknShare thank you
Wait did u say use corn syrup
Lillian Johnson Hi. Lillian. Yes, I did.
Sugar liquifies over heat so water is not needed. Traditional peanut brittle is made with baking soda. Unless the peanuts are salted, adding salt is an essential component in the recipe.
Nope I'm on a low salt diet so it's not essential
Has anyone tried to double the recipe
can u make soft toffee
Using shaved coconut and almond instead as peanuts is also good
Hi. Yes, that would work too. Yummy.
That's a good idea.
I’ve tried this 3 times and for some reason my sugar doesn’t ever start to brown.. it just gets really thick like cement 😢
It's really tricky. Keep the heat low to start with. Sometimes I lift it on and off the heat. Hope this helps.
@@TheCooknShare thanks for replying!
I would like to make the exact duplicate of munch candy bar brittle
Sure you can do that.
Can I use honey instead of sugar?
Hi. I'm not too sure. It really has to caramelize. Honey might though. If you try it, let us know.
No, you can't use only honey. If you have a recipe that calls for sugar and corn syrup, you can substitute the honey for the corn syrup. Honey has to much water in it to cook down and caramelize like it's supposed to.
You're right. We tried and it didn't work. But I wonder why the peanut brittle we made was moist and didn't look good when wrapped in plastic. I think it has something to do with the duration of cooling time. Am I right gargois1? Can you help me with this TheCooknShare? Thanks in advance!
Yes, too much moisture indicates that you didn't cook it long enough. Part of the process is to evaporate as much of the moisture out as you can. Do you have a candy thermometer? if not, please get one. They are not expensive and will take so much of the guesswork out of candy making.
Thanks a lot. We will sure take note of this.
This is not actually peanut brittle if you can see through the brittle. That is what it's called crocante in Italy. The reason being that this is not peanut brittle is that it is missing the baking soda to make it opaque lighter in texture this is more of just to see through boiled sugar with peanuts in it , crocante. Many people may prefer this however those with Dentures need to stay away unless you take a small piece and suck on it because it's not very chewable it is like glass but much thicker. If you've never had or seen peanut brittle this is not the recipe I would use. Look for a recipe with baking soda. Then you will be making peanut brittle for those who have had crocante and prefer that which is usually made with almonds or pine nuts you can make what you wish if you've had peanut brittle before. Peanut brittle is a many many generations old recipe for Holiday times and I think everybody should learn how to make it and learn the flavor as it is so lovely! :-)
Thank you for this 😊
Why doesn't my sugar caramalise?
Hi. That's too bad. I'm not too sure what happened. I know it can be tricky.
Mine went to Crystals
Not too sure what happened.
Anyone else thinks he sounds like rob Schneider ? No offense by the way
This turns out more like one expects on a lollipop with peanuts than a brittle. I think there is missing something, maybe butter or whatever.
superallen123 Did you make it?
If you add butter that would make it a peanut toffee. This is peanut brittle as it is brittle. Its in the name really.
Pure sugar
This recipe has failed me 3 times and I'm so frustrated. I can't get ANY
peanut brittle recipe to work, not just this one, so clearly it's my fault. In this recipe, the sugar never turns brown. Ever. I tried a slightly higher heat, but that doesn't help. Eventually it goes back to being crystals again and makes a mess out of my pot. What am I doing wrong?
Hi. The real important trick is that low and slow 5 minute simmer. Then give it a stir and let it simmer for an additional 5 minutes. At that point it should begin to turn brown. Also make sure you're using white granulated sugar. Let us know how it comes out. Also if you cook it too long, the sugar will go back to crystals again. I know it''s tricky.
I'm using white granulated sugar. I've tried it again, but it doesn't brown. I also tried Mark Bittman's recipe twice, and had a bit better luck. His is the same as yours, except he calls for 2 cups of sugar, medium heat. Someone just told me that stirring is what recrystalizes the sugar (which eventually re-melts, and that's how I made the Bittman recipe). Your recipe has failed me a total of 4 times. It simply NEVER turns brown. It foams and bubbles, and then turns back into crystals, and then burns. All 4 times. I also tried 2 different recipes that call for corn syrup, and water. But those were swimming pools. I'm determined to succeed, but this yours just isn't working for me at all.
Yes, it's tricky. But your intro says it's easy. It's not.
I'll have to give it a try again.
same here, I cooked it 5 times and 2 times succed
from phil recipe
+Kalil Val Nicolas Hey Kalil. You got it.
I had a bit of peanut butter so though it wasn't so hard
Great. Hope you enjoyed it, Fletcher.
Omg it was delicious I added two tablespoons of peanut butter
Thanks so much for the recipe
