Ingredients Brown Sugar Cashew Brittle
- 1 cup sugar, dark brown
- White sugar, 1 cup
- Light corn syrup, 1 cup
- 1/4 cup of butter and 1/2 cup of water
- Salted, roasted cashews in 2.5 cups
- 1.5 tsp of sifted baking soda
- 1 teaspoon vanilla essence plus more butter for coating
Steps Brown Sugar Cashew Brittle
- First, the oven should be heated to 250 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Use parchment paper to cover a baking sheet.
- To prevent the brittle from sticking, butter the parchment paper. Spread Cooking spray over the forks and/or silicone spatulas.
- On a second baking sheet, spread the cashews and bake them in the oven as directed. (Warming the nuts will prevent them from settling too quickly when added to the candy mixture.)
- Butter the sides of a 3-quart saucepan to prepare it. In a saucepan, mix the sugars, corn syrup, water, and ¼ cup of butter.
- Stir continuously while the mixture is heated to a boil, and reset the heat to a medium-low setting.
- Maintaining a boil all through the process, cook the candy until a candy thermometer registers 275 degrees Fahrenheit. To prevent burning the mixture, adjust the heat as needed. The duration of this action should be 30 minutes.
- After taking the cashews out of the oven, carefully combine them with the vanilla extract.
- Until a candy thermometer registers 295 degrees Fahrenheit, continue to simmer, stirring constantly (to prevent burning the nuts). It should take 15 to 20 minutes to complete this phase.
- Eliminate heat.
- As you keep stirring, add the baking soda and Pour immediately onto a baking sheet covered with paper, spreading with forks or spatulas that have been pre-prepared as thinly as possible.
- Before slicing it into small pieces, allow the baking sheet to cool fully.
