While it seems as if we haven’t been busy, we have. We’ve been traveling for fun (to the Grand Canyon), and, back at home, we’ve been making candy. We generally make candy for the holidays, mostly to give away, but, a bit for us, too. While we have our standards, such as Bear Paws, we like to change up some of the other recipes we use. This year we changed our brittle recipe to make almond brittle.
Now, we’re not going to have photos, since this is a simple variation on Peanut Brittle, with just a couple of substitutions: obviously, swap out peanuts and replace them with the same amount of almonds, and, slightly less obvious, replace the vanilla extract with 1/4 teaspoon of almond extract. Everything else is the same as in the Peanut Brittle recipe.
