Pistacio, Apricot, and Sesame Brittle

This is a great munchie to have sitting around when your guests arrive on T-day to stave off their hunger. Also makes a wonderful gift - wrapped in paper lined tins or brightly colored plastic wrap sheets tied with festive ribbons.
(serves 8)

Cooking spray (I use coconut oil*)
1 cup Sugar in the Raw*
1/2 cup light corn syrup
Pinch of sea* salt
1 T. Kerrygold* butter
1 t. baking soda
1/2 cup chopped pistachios
1/3 cup chopped dried apricots
1 T. sesame seeds

Coat baking sheet with spray. In a saucepan, cook sugar, syrup, and a pinch of salt over med., stirring occasionally, until amber, 10-13 mins. Carefully stir in butter and baking soda (mixture bubbles up!); pour onto baking sheet. Top with remaining ingredients; cool and break into pieces.

"Attitude is the mind's paintbrush. It can color any situation."

Have FUN today!! And, make sure to buy your turkey today or tomorrow (if frozen) so it can thaw safely in the fridge for a few days.

Love,

MM
