1 Cup Sugar 1/2 Teaspoon Ground Cinnamon 1/2 Cup Light Corn Syrup 1 Teaspoon Baking Soda 2 Cups Salted Peanuts 1 Teaspoon Vanilla 1 Teaspoon Butter (Not Margarine)
In a 2-quart microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. Heat, uncovered, on high for 4 minutes; stir. Heat 3 minutes longer. Stir in peanuts, butter and cinnamon. Microwave, uncovered on high for 30-60 seconds or until mixture turns a light amber color (mixture will be very hot). Quickly stir in baking soda and vanilla until light and foamy. Immediately pour onto a well-greased baking sheet and spread with forks. Refrigerate for 20 minutes or until firm; break into small pieces. Store in an airtight container. Makes 1 1/4 pounds.
