Microwave Peanut Brittle

(Recipe courtesy of the "Calico Critters" website.
Remember those little guys I think they may be
 related to the "Sylvanian Family"
Now you remember, right?
You didn't even know they could cook,
did you? Anyway...)

1 cup Sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 dash salt
1 to 1/2 cups shelled raw peanuts
1 tablespoon butter or margarine
1 1/2 teaspoons baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla

Grease baking sheet or jelly roll pan
generously. Combine sugar, corn syrup
and salt in 3-quart casserole; stir in
peanuts. Microwave on high until light
brown, 8 - 10 minutes. Stir in remaining
ingredients until light and foamy.
Quickly spread on greased baking sheet.
Spread as thinly as possible for more
brittle candy. Yield: 1 lb.

Now head on over to that website, ya hear?
They've got cute little activities, games,
print outs, etc for kids ages 2-6 -ish.
