It comes out perfect every time, takes about 20 minutes to do, and it makes a great holiday gift.<br /><br /><b>Boxer</b>: The brittle – oh, it's so yummy, I've eaten a million pounds of it already.<br /><br /><b>Buzz</b>: Aw, come on. Be a little Martha. It won't hurt a bit.<br /><br /><b>Troll</b>: Me, neither. But I've tried a half dozen times and it comes out like that every time. So, if I want caramel, I Kraft it.<br /><br /><b>La Diva</b>: Phew. That makes me feel better knowing you're having trouble, too. And kudos to you for choosing this topic – it's been fascinating and educational!<br /><br /><b>Sandcastle Momma</b>: 'Tis the season for bling!<br /><br /><b>Karl</b>: Oh, do make my brittle and let me know how it compares. I used to SLAVE over my candy making. I once spent $50 on a thermometer because I SWORE the supermarket ones I owned were off. But I even make pralines in the microwave and I can't tell the difference. The only candy I made the old fashioned way is divinity. Can't cliff note that one.<br /><br /><b>Aunty</b>: After Shamu brought a box of Elbow's confections to the Summit, I will never again discount chocolate and ANY flavor.<br /><br /><b>Shamu</b>: Let me know if you have any luck with the caramel. And be careful on your way to Elbow. I'm SO JEALOUS!<br /><br /><b>All</b>: I have to work, work, work today, so will most likely have my results post up tomorrow. Thanks to all of you for making this one of the most interesting Throw Downs ever!moihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07824043795171732429noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782769961461736606.post-58552181477970382252009-12-10T07:04:58.314-08:002009-12-10T07:04:58.314-08:00Hmmmm, chocolate and salt, now I'm going to ha...Hmmmm, chocolate and salt, now I'm going to have to trek over to Christopher Elbow's despite the ice to get me some little nibbles of chocolate and salt.<br />Now I'm intrigued with the whole carmelization discussion.

They pass it down one to the next, yet they keep it in the family. It's been 30 years and I've still never seen the entire process.<br /><br />I thought about trying your recipe and seeing how they reacted.Karlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18233754448811631284noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782769961461736606.post-68125368460188598712009-12-09T12:46:09.740-08:002009-12-09T12:46:09.740-08:00Anything with chocolate is a winner in my book!

I find it is better, quicker and more reliable to make caramel out of brown sugar, butter and then adding a bit of cream! YUM! Serve it over vanilla ice cream with bananas and gingersnaps. but, I digress!<br /><br />I love those coins!!! They do look like GS Thin Mints! Yes, the coin idea would be precious. I'm really loving the salty/sweet trend....caramel/salt, maple/salt and chocolate/salt...what else? I'll have to bookmark the link with the vid.<br /><br />Thanks so much for being judge, darling, I can't wait to see your final posting!

Bwahah...MMMMMMM....chocolate covered salted beets. Bwahahaha<br /><br />They actually look a little like Girl Scout Thin Mints. I don't think I've ever had occasion to carmelize sugar so I can't feel your pain. You made this work though. I like the "coin" idea but it's a little too Martha Stewartish for a man like me.<br /><br />Nice job and thanks for judging.Buzz Killhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01443964019621130222noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4782769961461736606.post-58521418987454626412009-12-09T09:16:38.240-08:002009-12-09T09:16:38.240-08:00I'm still happy with you telling/showing us ab...I'm still happy with you telling/showing us about how to make brittle in the microwave.

How can that EVER be bad?<br /><br />And, P.S., I'm too scared to try and caramelize sugar. I was going to make salty peanut brittle, but the whole process of cooking sugar freaked me out.<br /><br />Nice job.Allisonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00227894503764262908noreply@blogger.com
