Buttery Peanut Brittle

So buttery and good. I would leave the peanuts out for my dad. For everyone else, i used raw peanuts. Cooling time is not figured in.

Combine sugar , syrup and water in 3 quart pan.

Cook and stir until sugar dissolves.

When syrup boils , blend in butter.

Stir frequently after mixture reaches syrup stage.

Add nuts when temperature reaches soft crack and stir constantly until hard crack.

Remove from heat.

Quickly stir in baking soda , mixing thoroughly.

Pour onto 2 large , well butter cookie sheets.

As candy cools , stretch out thin by lifting and pulling from edges , using 2 forks.

Loose from pans as soon as possible and turn candy over.

Break in pieces.

I use table knife handle.
