food Cashew Ghost Brittle

[AldenMiller]

I saw a post on this forum the other day about some spicy Peanut Brittle and thought I'd give it a try.  I found a recipe for cashew brittle that was quick to make in the microwave.  I added one teaspoon of ghost pepper powder to the recipe, this stuff will light you up and tastes great!

That looks fabulous....I can imagine that it would light you up!!

Looks very good. I had some ghost pepper cashew brittle that also had bacon in it. Very tasty and didn't last very long.

A teaspoon full is a lot. Unless you had a big batch, I bet that really would light you up . Sounds good. I'll have to try it.

Here's the recipe I followed:

I like the idea of adding bacon crumbles, maybe next time.
 
Reactions today at work range from "Holy S&^%" to the hiccups.

I like the fact that it looks so good while the ghost powder is discretely hiding in the background. What a wake up call for the average sweet tooth!

Cool.  I did it with pecans.  The recipe I used added a bit of cinnamon (bacon crumbles sound pretty good too).
 
Thanks for posting.
