  1. Quick and easy!I also added 1/2 cup of roasted unsalted seame seeds and 2 tablespoons of honey.Deliciously sweet!

  2. This recipe was cut in half although the amount of butter was doubled from 1 tablespoon to 2 tablespoons. I also added 1/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract and most importantly used two teflon pans to melt the butter and the sugar (made for much easier clean up-NO scrubbing of pans!) Instead of buttering a baking sheet, I lined an 8" square Pyrex pan with parchment paper and used a small piece of parchment paper to spread and smooth the top of the brittle. This part must be done quickly before the mixture hardens but carefully so as not to burn yourself. Looking forward to all kinds of variations of this recipe! Made for SUN & SPICE Event/Veg Tag February.

  3. The flavor was great. Unlike peanut brittle, it is loaded with the sunflowerseeds. The store only had non-salted dry roasted sunflower seeds. I felt the brittle could of been more salty. Salted seeds would probably take care of this.

  4. This was my first attempt at brittle of any kind. I was pleased with the results and it was much easier than I expected. I like that it doesn't require a candy thermometer. I will keep this recipe and definitely make it again. I would like to try some of the seasonings suggested by other reviewers, just for a different taste. But this was a big hit at my sunflower themed event.

  5. I had never made brittle before, because I was very scared of the process, but your recipe sounded so straight forward that I just had to try it. I must say, I will make this often again: It really is easy if you have time and patience. My sugar took ages to melt, but once it had melted, everything was so easy and quick and my brittle is already ready for eating. YUM! I used a chili flavoured oil to add a bit of heat and find it completements the sweetness from the sugar nicely. THANK YOU SO MUCH for sharing this winner with us, Sharon. I cant wait to make gift baggies with this.<br/>Made and reviewed for our VIP Veggie Swap # 55 February 2013.
