VALERIE E.

This was terrible. I brought it to work in a ziploc bag and it turned into a pile of gummy caramel with peanuts throughout. I thought my boss's teeth were going to rip out, from all the chewing. And the faces of my co-workers. We all shook our heads and I warned them not to make this recipe. I've made peanut brittle before using corn syrup and baking soda - MUCH better results. I tried this because it seemed simpler, but didn't know that it would never set the same as traditional brittle.
