Store in an airtight container if they last that long.  This brittle is delicious.  And healthier than ordinary peanut or other nut brittle.  You don’t want to deprive yourself, especially this time of year.  Let me know how you like it!

  4. Tried making this today. Did not turn out at all. Bubbled up in the oven and spread to the edges of the pan and beyond. Edges burned terribly. Followed the instructions to a “t”. Not sure what went wrong…
