What's the secret ingredient in these cakes? Pudding mix. It not only adds flavor but it gives the cake a richer, creamier texture. No one will know your secret ingredient!

ingredients
1 cup white sugar
1 cup white corn syrup
2 cups peanuts
1 teaspoon baking soda
directions
In a medium fry pan, combine sugar and corn syrup. Stir over high heat until well blended and mixture starts to bubble. Add peanuts and continue stirring until the mixture gets a nice brown appearance.
Add baking soda and stir until all the bubbles are out of the mix. Spread on a greased cookie sheet and let cool. Break into pieces when the brittle is solid.
RJ's Note: Aunt Gonda stayed with us for a couple of days (17-18 December, 1998) and she showed us how to make her famous Peanut Brittle. Our first batch lasted one day!

A can of cream of mushroom soup can be a real dinner saver. It works great in casseroles and can turn into a sauce or gravy in a pinch.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.

I made two batches of this peanut brittle the first day. I was never able to make peanut brittle before I found this recipe. I have shared this recipe with four other people. My mom made cashew brittle with recipe as well and turned out wonderful. I would recommend this recipe to everyone I know. Thank you so much for Aunt Gonda's Peanut Brittle Recipe.
