SPICY BACON PEANUT BRITTLE ... YES!

BACON...BACON...BACON...

if i could just put a touch of bacon in everything, i think i'd be happy...

well, let me rethink that...i'm already pretty happy!

AND, i already DO try to put a little bacon in everything!

oh, and don't forget the spice. i have to have a bit of (who am i kidding)...ALOT of spicy heat in everything i eat. my breakfast usually has 3 kinds of peppers in it. lunch? pepperocini and Sarachi, and dinner? Tapatio and jalapenos on the side.

do they make a flamin' hot toothpaste?

i found this brittle recipe at cooks.com

i did, however, add some vanilla. i read in a Betty Crocker recipe to...

liquify the 1 tsp baking soda with 1 tsp vanilla and 1 tsp water.

i think it makes it easier this way.

also this recipe calles for 2 c. chopped peanuts (i prefer wholes and halves) AND, i think it needs more than 2 c.

use thick bacon cooked however you do it best, but make it CRISPY.

for the spice i used red pepper flakes (use at your discretion)

add all your extras when you add the peanuts according to the recipe

oh...and i used good large roasted salted Virginia peanuts
always use a GOOD candy thermometer. i learned the hard way. a few recipes down the drain and a few lame thermometers melted and/or returned.
have fun...
