Directions
This is a recipe I have used since Youth Fellowship days in our church in Iowa. The minister bought 100 lbs of raw peanuts, and we had a project going.
Bring ½ cup water to a boil in a large frying pan. Add 2 cups sugar and 1 cup white syrup. Still until dissolved and boil until it will spin a thead.
Add the peanuts. Cook slowly over a low fire until golden brown (it's easy to want to quit to soon) in color. Remove from the heat and add the margarine, baking soda and vanilla. It will foam up. Stir quickly. Spread in 2 large buttered cookie sheets. Cool adn break into pieces when hard.
