T's Peanut Brittle

Well, actually, this recipe was attributed to a Martha Dickson. I have no idea who that is. But since T provided it to me via Rosanne, we'll give her the credit.

PEANUT BRITTLE

2 c. granulated sugar
1 c. white Karo
2 level tsp. soda
1/2 c. water
1 lb. peanuts, broken into pieces
1 T. butter
1 T. vanilla

Cook sugar, Karo, and water until brittle when dropped into cold water. Mix peanuts and cook until light brown, stirring. It may smell scorched, but be sure to cook long enough, but do not scorch. Remove from heat and add butter, vanilla, and soda. Stir until soda is mixed in well. It will foam. Then pour out onto a buttered cookie sheet or buttered aluminum foil.
