Family Favorites - Christmas Goodies

Belfield, ND(Zone 4a)

Last night I asked my family what Christmas goodies they have to have or Christmas wouldn't be the same. They agreed uninimously that it would be Chex Mix, frosted cutout sugar cookies, and Microwave Peanut Brittle.

What are your family favorites, and care to share the recipe?

Here's my microwave peanut brittle recipe. I'm going to make some soon.

Microwave Peanut Brittle

1 cup raw peanuts
1 cup white sugar
1/2 cup white syrup
1/8 tsp salt

Stir well and put in heavy glass bowl. Microwave on high 4 minutes, then take out and stir.

Return to the microwave for 3 1/2 minutes. Take out and add 1 tbs. butter (stick only, not tub). Stir and microwave 2 minutes more.

Remove and add 1 tsp. soda. Stir gently until light and fluffy. Spread immediately on buttered cooky sheets
