Ingredients
- 1/2 cup corn syrup
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
- 1 cup raw cashews, unsalted
- 2 tablespoons butter
- Vanilla ice cream
- Special equipment: Candy thermometer
Directions
Spray inside of measuring cup with nonstick cooking spray. In a medium saucepan, over medium-high heat, add corn syrup, sugar, and salt. Cook on stove until the temperature reaches 310 degrees F. on a candy thermometer. Once the mixture reaches 310 degrees F, take off the stove; add the baking soda, cashews and butter, working quickly and stirring constantly.
The mixture should stay an opaque color. On a nonstick tray sprayed with nonstick cooking spray, pour in the mixture and spread with wooden spoon. Cool for 1 1/2 hours.
*Cook's Note: A silicone mat would work best to avoid a sticky clean-up.
Place 2 scoops of vanilla ice cream on each dish and garnish with broken pieces of cashew crunch.

I had to add a 1/3 of a cup of water. Just the corn syrup and sugar weren't working. Luckily I had a recipe for peanut brittle out and it called for water. It looks good but have not tried it yet. I've been baking for four days. One more recipe and I'm done.
