"I tried this Recipe and it turned out great. a nice creamy colour and very crunchy.
Now I did alter it a bit, I can never find raw peanuts so i bought dry roasted unsalted ones, since they were already cooked there was no need to add them at the start. so I waited till the the magic 300 temp and then pulled it from the store , threw in the peanuts, butter, baking soda, and vanilla and stirred like crazy. I had made a double batch and dumped the two piles onto parchement paper, I was a bit horrified as I was not able to spread it out with the spatchula as the piles were too deep. I grabbed the butter and tried to spread it by hand and almost lost my hands (NO chef hands on me that can go into fire).
However what worked amazing and I recomend to anyone using this recipie, I grabbed one of those silicone gloves for lifing hot pots and made a fist, using the back of the glove the brittle smoothed out extreamly easy.
The final product was amazing and is going into my xmas gift baskets :)"
