Candy Apple Brittle



* Note: Sorry for yesterday recipe delay, my school has gotten in the way. But, it's finally here and just in time for Halloween.

If you love the taste of Candy apple, and you love peanut brittle. Why not combine the two, and have a two in one brittle.

Serves:10

1/2 c. - 2 Tbsp. Pure Cane sugar
1/4 c. - 1 Tbsp. light corn syrup
1 Tbsp. - 3/4 tsp. Margarine, softened
1/2 c. - 2 Tbsp. dried apples
1/8 tsp. course Himalayan salt
2 Tbsp.- 1 1/2 tsp.water
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1/2 c.- 2 Tbsp. crushed peanuts

Directions:

1. Grease a large cookie sheet. Set aside.

2. In a heavy duty 2 quart saucepan, over medium heat, bring to a boil sugar, corn syrup, salt, and water. Stir until sugar has dissolved. Stir in peanuts, and dried apples. Set the candy thermometer in place, and continue cooking. Stir frequently until temperature reaches 300 degrees F, or until a small amount of the mixture dropped into very cold water separates into hard and brittle threads.

3. Remove the mixture from heat; immediately stir in Margarine and baking soda; pour at once onto cookie sheet. With 2 forks, lift and pull peanut and apple mixture, into rectangle about 14x12 inches; cool. breaking candy into pieces.
