Pepper adds an unexpected bit of heat to the brittle, but you can omit it for a traditional version. To wrap, place pieces of brittle in clear food-safe cellophane bags, then tie with ribbon.

Ingredients

Cooking spray 1 1/2 cups sugar 1/3 cup light-colored corn syrup 3 tablespoons water 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 1/2 cups roasted peanuts 1 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon butter 1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper 1/4 teaspoon cracked black pepper 1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

Instructions

Coat a large jelly roll pan with cooking spray. Combine sugar and next 5 ingredients (sugar through salt) in a large saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cook 10 minutes or until sugar dissolves and candy thermometer registers 325 °, stirring occasionally. Remove mixture from heat; stir in peanuts and remaining ingredients. (The baking soda will cause the mixture to bubble and become opaque.) Quickly pour mixture into prepared pan, spreading to edges. Let stand 1 hour; break into pieces. Note: Store the peanut brittle in an airtight container for up to 2 weeks.
