Peanut Brittle

1 Cup sugar
1/2 Cup light corn syrup
Dash of salt
1 to 1-1/2 Cups shelled raw peanuts
1 tbsp butter or margarine
1-1/2 tsp baking soda
1 tsp vanilla

Grease baking sheet heavily. Combine sugar, corn syrup and salt in 3-qt casserole. Stir in peanuts. Microwave at HIGH (100%) until light brown, 8 to 10 minutes, stirring once or twice.

Stir in remaining ingredients until light and foamy. Quickly spread on greased baking sheet. Spread as thin as possible for brittle candy. Cool; break into pieces.
