SMS - Peanut Brittle

Our host for Sweet Melissa Sundays recipe is JoVonn of The Givens Chronicles and she chose Peanut Brittle. I love making candy. It just amazes me how a few ingredients transform into something completely, just by applying heat (ok, I admit it, I'm a geek). Although I'm allergic to peanuts, I decided to make this week's brittle recipe and take it to work to share. My husband also enjoys it.

A couple weeks ago, we made Roasted Cashew Brittle for SMS, or in my case, Almond Brittle. Given the issues some had run into with the SMS recipe at that time, I decided to use my standby brittle recipe, and I did the same thing this week as well. You can find my recipe HERE.

A big thanks to JoVonn for hosting this week. Don't forget to check out her brittle post where she'll also have the recipe for you from the The Sweet Melissa Baking Book. Be sure to check out others who embarked on this candy making adventure right HERE.
