Chrissy Sewing...

Geez Christmas is just around the corner and I still have so much to do... 

plus I am going to Perth on Wednesday to pick up my daughter and my MIL... 

do some Christmas shopping as I have done very little and a food shop and I will fit a tidy up at the hairdressers before I head back home as early as I can Friday morning to get home before the heat that day and expected temp of 40...

 Peanut Brittle

it is so yummy and morrish that I had to put it away quickly...

recipe as follows

Peanut Brittle

2 cups white sugar

150g unsalted butter

250g salted roasted peanuts

Line a baking tray with baking paper. Combine the sugar and butter with 1/4cup water in a large heavy based saucepan over medium-high heat. Stir gently until sugar is dissolved. Bring to the boil, then boil rapidly, without stirring for 10 to 15 minutes.

Working quickly pour the mixture onto the prepared tray and tilt to spread out. 

Use a metal spoon to help it spread. Place tray somewhere cool and wait for brittle to set. Shatter into pieces and store in an airtight container.

enjoy...
