Clarice Brown works with me and I think she is a great cook. She has brought in some wonderful recipes to work for some office "pot lucks" and "pie contests." She shared this easy recipe for Peanut Brittle with me today. I was looking for a good recipe that was easy-to-do and this brittle is just what I needed to finished my holiday goodie baking...

i've always wondered do you use raw peanuts with the skins or do you use unsalted nuts from the can?
I use the unsalted nuts from a can myself. But I don't see why you couldn't use raw peanuts either.
Try it and let me know how it works for you...
