Default Cinnamon Walnut Brittle - WindyCityPrince

I made this last night. It. Is. FABULOUS. So quick and easy too, the
hardest part is getting the 2-quart container cleaned up afterward! I am
making about 20 batches of this today for presents.

1 cup sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 cup chopped walnuts
1 teaspoon butter 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla extract




Butter a baking sheet; set aside. In a 2-qt. microwave-safe bowl,
combine sugar and corn syrup. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3 minutes;
stir. Cook, uncovered, on high 2-1/2 minutes longer. Stir in walnuts, butter
and cinnamon. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 2 minutes or until mixture
turns a light amber color (mixture will be very hot). Quickly stir in baking
soda and vanilla until light and foamy. Immediately pour onto prepared pan;
spread with a metal spatula. Cool; break into pieces.
