Can you freeze peanut brittle

Answer 1

• My batch I thought was brown enough and thin enough...turned out I was wrong although it did harden it was just too sticky. I took each broken peice put it on parchement and cooked on high in microwave for 40 seconds. Turned colour and came out perfect. I also dusted it with the tiniest bit of baking soda before cooking again.

• You can't save a batch that didn't harden. It needs to be cooked long enough to change color. Light to medium brown. The recipe I use calls for a mixture of soda and margarine to be mixed in at the last before spreading the mixture to harden.

Answer 2

If it's soft enough to roll into balls then make small sweets by rolling it into balls (you may need wet hands) and then rolling them in desiccated coconut or cocoa powder - keep them in the fridge).

If it's crunchy then smash it up with a rolling pin or in the food processor and use the crumbs to add into muffin mix, to add to crumble toppings or granola, or to mix into soft vanilla ice-creamthat you then refreeze.

If it's soft enough to knead you can incorporate some flour, knead it thoroughly, roll it out and cut cookie shapes from the dough then bake them.

Answer 3

I had a double batch I undercooked . It was cooled on parchment , I cut it in to fourths and microwaved on 1/4 on large piece of parchment for 40 seconds at a time . It took 3 times at 40 sec intervals but it worked perfectly . I now have 4 golden brown pieces of brittle. Check after each 40 seconds for the right color. Remove from microwave allow to harden.
