1/4 c. Karo
1/2 c. water
2 c. white sugar
1/4 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda, add more if you want it more fluffy
1 tsp. vanilla
2 Tbsp. butter
Bring the sugar, water, syrup and salt mixture to a boil. Boil this mixture 2 minutes, then add raw peanuts. Cook to hard crack stage or 300 degrees F. Remove from heat, add the baking soda, butter and vanilla. Stir only enough to mix well. Pour contents onto a greased cookie sheet (do not scrape the pan). Spread as thin as possible. When cool, break into small pieces. Candy should be stored in an airtight container.
