Ingredients
- 1 serving cooking spray
- 1 cup white sugar
- ½ cup light corn syrup
- 1 ½ cups mixed raw nut halves and pieces
- 1 tablespoon unsalted butter, or more as needed
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- ½ teaspoon coarse sea salt, or to taste (Optional)
Instructions
- Butter a 10×15-inch baking sheet or line with parchment paper.
- Spray a heatproof spoon with cooking spray. Stir sugar and corn syrup together in a 2-quart microwave-safe bowl using the greased spoon. Microwave on high until very bubbly, 2 1/2 to 4 minutes.
- Quickly stir in nuts and butter. Continue microwaving until bubbles begin to take on a light caramel color, another 2 1/2 to 4 minutes. Watch carefully to make sure the nuts don’t burn. Add vanilla extract and baking soda, stirring quickly until bubbly and combined.
- Immediately pour mixture onto the prepared sheet pan in a thin layer. Sprinkle with sea salt. Allow to cool and set before breaking into pieces, 30 to 40 minutes.
- This recipe was developed for a 1250-W microwave. For lower wattage microwaves, use the longer end of recommended cooking times.
- The candy left in the bowl and on utensils will be very hard, but it will easily clean up with a water soak of several minutes.
- Serving size is approximate.
