Ingredients

  • 2 cups sugar
  • 1/2 cup water, to dissolve

In a saucepan boil the sugar and water together to make a caramel. Test the color of the caramel on a white plate. It should be amber-brown. Stir in the butter with a wooden spoon then stir in the nuts. Pour onto a silpat and let cool. Break up into chunks (for brittle, just chop or crush with the bottom of a bottle). Store in an airtight container.

    Excellent, I have used every nut available and it comes out perfect every time. Tonight I used brazil nuts, almonds and pecans to put in my Christmas baskets, awesome and fool proof! Loved it!!! No extra ingredients needed, I watched the episode. Cook over a medium to medium high heat til golden, remove from stove top add butter and nuts and pour to cool. If using a thermometer I would say about 320 degrees maybe 350.
