Not to be confused with evaporated milk, sweetened condensed milk is very sweet (and very sticky) and used primarily in desserts.

ingredients
1 cup light corn syrup
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
2 cups butter (not margarine)
2 cups peanuts (salted or unsalted), more if desired
1 teaspoon baking soda
directions
Butter (very thoroughly) two pans approximately 7" X 11" (or one large pan if you want thinner brittle). Stir together the corn syrup, sugar and water, then bring to a boil while stirring constantly.
Add butter and continue boiling and stirring to 280 degrees F on a candy thermometer, then add peanuts (mixture should be a creamy tan color). Stir until 305 degrees F (take off the heat if it starts to brown).
Remove from heat and stir in soda and pour into pans. Use a fork to pull away from the sides and when cool enough to touch turn the slab over.
When completely cooled, break into pieces. You can also use mixed nuts or for a real change add cinnamon or nutmeg.

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.

Whats the matter with you people, its the butter that seperates this receipe from the others. i have tried the rest and this one makes the others justm plain ordinary. BUTTER
I make this recipes all the time and it is only 1 cup of margarine or butter. I usually just use margarine. It's just as good as butter.
does this recipe really have 2 cups of butter? or is that a typo? thanks
