![]() When I say making peanut brittle is an “Art” I really do mean it, because you have to get the temperatures and timing just right. I am still using all of it to this day, including the aluminum pot they bought back in the 1950’s. Before they passed away they asked me if there was anything of theirs I would like to have and I asked for all their peanut brittle making stuff so I can carry on the tradition with my family. During High School they moved very close to us so we could help take care of them, which is also the time I learned “The Art” of making peanut brittle from them. All throughout my childhood when ever we went to Grandma and Grandpa’s house on the Island they always had warm hugs, cookies and peanut brittle. This will be a long post, and I apologize. Any peanut brittle recipe that uses a microwave should be considered dog food compared to this recipe. This is the only recipe I found on the internet that comes close to my Grandparents recipe, which I thought was a secret lost time. DO NOT use a knife to push it around, your brittle will not look as nice. Pour immediately into the buttered pan, and tilt the pan so that the brittle covers the entire pan corner to corner.
