Ingredients
- Vegetable oil cooking spray
- 1 1/2 cups sugar
- 1/2 cup light corn syrup
- Mix-ins, according to variation
Directions
- Coat a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with cooking spray. Bring sugar and corn syrup to a boil in a medium saucepan, stirring and brushing down sides with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming, until sugar dissolves. Cook, swirling occasionally, until mixture just starts to turn golden around edge.
- Stir in mix-ins. Cook, stirring occasionally, until mixture is pale amber, about 8 minutes. Pour onto baking sheet without spreading. Let cool. Break into pieces.
Cook's Note
Brittle can be stored in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
The sound on this video is terrible. How much honey and how much baking soda?
Where would I find one of the infrared digital thermometer's used by Martha during the candy making segment? I am smitten:)
