Sesame Brittle

A sweet and crunchy sesame candy that is easy to make and delicious to eat.

Ingredients

  • white sugar (0.75 cup)
  • honey (0.25 cup)
  • water (1 tablespoon)
  • raw sesame seeds (1 cup)
  • butter (2 teaspoons)
  • vanilla extract (1 teaspoon)

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper.
  2. Combine sugar, honey, and water in a small, thick-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Cook and stir until a smooth slurry forms, about 3 minutes. Stir in raw sesame seeds.
  3. Cook over medium-low heat, stirring often, until mixture turns an amber-caramel color, 5 to 10 minutes. A candy thermometer should read 300 degrees F (150 degrees C). Remove saucepan from heat. Stir in butter and vanilla extract. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet.
