Not Your Average Brittle...Pecans!

1. 1

   Lightly grease a baking sheet and set aside.

2. 2

   Combine Sugar, Light Corn Syrup, Water and Salt in a large, heavy skillet (cast iron works best if you have it). Bring to rolling boil over medium-high heat. Add chopped pecans; continue cooking until the syrup begins to turn brown. Depending on how hot your eye gets, this usually takes about 20 - 25 minutes to get the desired consistency. *Be sure to constantly stir the mixture so it does not stick

3. 3

   Do not over or under cook it because the brittle will be ruined.In order to test consistency put a drop of the brittle mixture into cold water, if it hardens immediately it is done.

4. 4

   Remove from heat once you have the desired consistency, and stir in Unsalted Butter and Baking Soda.

5. 5

   Pour onto prepared baking sheet. Cool completely before breaking it up into pieces.
