Peanut Brittle Recipe – FAQs

______________________________________________________________________________

Why is my peanut brittle too hard?

The problem with most peanut brittle recipes is they are too dense which makes them too hard to chew. With this recipe, you get nice big air pockets between the sweet crunch. Less potential for emergency dental visits.

Is peanut brittle toffee?

Peanut brittles are also typically pulled while they cool down, so the candy becomes very thin (and brittle, hence the name). This is a toffee, so it does not contain baking soda and is not pulled while cooling.

How long will peanut brittle last?

Peanut brittle can last up to two months if jarred properly.

How do you store peanut brittle?

Wrap tightly and store in an airtight container at room temperature. Proper storage should keep brittle fresh for up to two months—if you can resist eating it all at once!
