I just made this and it didn’t harden. I accidentally added the baking soda when I added the vanilla. Could this be the reason?

I’m pretty sure it would be fine. Just make sure you use a large pot so it doesn’t boil over.

Do you think it would work to double this recipe? Or would that mess with how the elements work together? I’m still pretty new to making candy.

Thank you for this recipe! I just made some today for gifts. My family keeps on asking for more “tastes”.

My dad loves peanut brittle too but I hate using corn syrup for it. Thank you so much for sharing this!

According to Anita Chu’s Field Guide to Candy, the baking soda aerates it making it easier to bite into.

I just made this and it’s delicious! I like the use of coconut oil.

I cannot find rapadura at our whole foods store. Is organic sugar cane also a natural sweetner?
