Brittle with Nuts and Sesame Seeds

 

I was in a candy mode one day, and I don’t want the just-sweet-kind candy. So I decided to make some candy with nuts. I think they taste a lot better than regular candy.

Ingredients:

2 lbs sugar, 1 lb mixed roasted nuts, 2 tbsp syrup, 1/4 cup sesame seeds.Brittle with Nuts and Sesame Seeds

Method:

1. Prepare a 9×13 baking pan, line with one layer of foil, set aside.

If you want the candy to be thinner, you’ll need a bigger pan.Brittle with Nuts and Sesame Seeds

2. Pour sugar, syrup and 1/4 cup water into a sauce pan, melt sugar on medium high heat, constantly stirring until liquid color turn to brown.

3. Adjust heat to low, then slowly sprinkle nuts and sesame seeds into pan, constantly stirring until all the nuts and sesame seeds are coated with liquid, and you still can see some liquid flow around.

4. Pour the whole thing into the baking pan, covered with foil, then put something heavy on top to Brittle with Nuts and Sesame Seedsfirm the candy.

I used a smaller baking pan, with some water inside.

5. Let candy cool, then cut into pieces.
