Peanut Brittle

1 c. light corn syrup
1/2 c. water
2 c. sugar
2 c. raw peanuts
1/2 Tbsp. butter
1 1/2 tsp. salt

Cook syrup, sugar, and water to soft ball stage. Add peanuts to cooking mixture. Continue to stir constantly until syrup turns light golden color (hard crack) turn off the heat. Add the rest of the ingredients. Pour onto greased cookie sheet. Do not spread. It is fun to hit it with a table knife handle and watch it crack!
