Peanut Brittle


2 Cups sugar
1 Cup Karo syrup
1 Cup water

Boil until it spins a thread (15 minutes) Add 2 Cups raw peanuts. Cook until brown (15 minutes). Stir constantly or peanuts will burn. Add 1/4 tsp salt, 2 TBS butter, 2 tsp vanilla and 2 tsp soda. It will foam like crazy. Pour onto a buttered cookie sheet.
My mom made this every Christmas - still does. Brings back such wonderful memories for me.
