Prep Time
Cooking Mode
½ cup cup shelled salted macadamia nuts, chopped
½ cup cup shelled pistachios, chopped
2 cups cup sugar
½ cup cup corn syrup
¼ cup cup water
2 tbsp tbsp. Compliments Salted Butter
1 tsp tsp Sensations by Compliments Pure Vanilla Extract
½ tsp tsp baking soda
1 tsp tsp coarse sea salt
½ cup cup shelled salted macadamia nuts, chopped
½ cup cup shelled pistachios, chopped
2 cups cup sugar
½ cup cup corn syrup
¼ cup cup water
2 tbsp tbsp. Compliments Salted Butter
1 tsp tsp Sensations by Compliments Pure Vanilla Extract
½ tsp tsp baking soda
1 tsp tsp coarse sea salt
Directions
1Toast chopped macadamia nuts in a dry skillet over medium heat until lightly golden and fragrant, approx. 5 min. Mix in pistachios. Set aside. Generously grease a rimmed baking sheet with butter or vegetable oil. Set aside.
2In a medium-size heavy saucepan, combine sugar, corn syrup and water over medium heat. Stir occasionally until dissolved, and then cook without stirring, brushing down the sides of saucepan with a pastry brush dipped in cold water (to prevent bits of sugar from hardening on the pan's sides). Cook 10 min. until "soft ball" stage or a candy thermometer reads 234°F (112°C).
3Stir butter into sugar mixture and cook 10 to 15 min. longer, until "hard crack" stage or a candy thermometer reads 300°F (150°C). Remove from heat.
4Working quickly, use a heatproof spatula to stir in vanilla, nuts and baking soda and pour onto prepared baking sheet, spreading evenly. Sprinkle with sea salt. Cool completely before breaking into pieces.
