2 cups sugar
2 cups raw peanuts
1/4 cup water
2 teaspoons baking soda
3/4 cup Karo light corn syrup

Grease two cookie sheets with butter and set aside. In a 4-quart saucepan on medium heat, cook sugar, water, Karo and raw peanuts. Stir constantly, until mixture becomes a very light caramel color. Remove from heat and continue to stir. Add baking soda and continue stirring until it becomes a true caramel color. Pour brittle onto pans. After a few minutes, begin stretching brittle with your fingers and break into pieces. Lay brittle on wax paper to cool.
