Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• self-rising flour
• plain greek yogurt
• butter
• salt

Instructions

1. 1 Bring 6 cups of water to a low boil in a large pot. Add baking soda.
2. 2 Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking sheet.
3. 3 Mix 1 cup flour and Greek yogurt together in a medium bowl until a shaggy dough forms. Transfer to a surface dusted with more self-rising flour, and knead for 8 to 10 minutes. Continue adding flour as needed if the dough is too sticky.
4. 4 Cut the dough into 4 equal pieces. Roll each segment into a long, thin rope, 22 to 24 inches in length. Twist the rope into a pretzel shape by taking the two ends, twisting them around each other, then securing both ends side-by-side onto the center portion of the rope.
5. 5 One by one, carefully drop each pretzel into the water and boil until the pretzel floats to the top, 2 to 3 minutes. Drain on paper towels or a cooling rack.
6. 6 Transfer to the prepared baking sheet.
7. 7 Bake in the preheated oven for 20 minutes. Remove from the oven and increase the oven's temperature to 425 degrees F (220 degrees C). Brush the pretzels with some of the melted butter; continue to bake until golden brown, 4 to 5 minutes more. Brush with remaining butter and top with coarse salt.

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• water
• vanilla extract
• white sugar
• water
• corn syrup
• pecan
• butter

Instructions

1. 1 Line a rimmed baking sheet with a silicone mat. Mix together baking soda, 1 teaspoon water, and vanilla in a small bowl; set aside.
2. 2 Mix together sugar, 1 cup water, and corn syrup in a 3-quart saucepan. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture reaches 240 degrees F (115 degrees C) on a candy thermometer, or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a soft ball that flattens when removed from water and placed on a flat surface, about 25 minutes.
3. 3 Stir in pecans and butter. Heat to 300 degrees F (149 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads, about 13 minutes. Immediately remove from the heat and stir in reserved baking soda mixture, until candy is light and foamy.
4. 4 Pour mixture onto the prepared baking sheet and allow to cool until hardened, 1 to 2 hours. Break into pieces.

By Lisa Marie Hardin

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• sugar
• corn syrup
• white vinegar
• chocolate chip

Instructions

1. 1 In a large saucepan over medium heat, stir together the sugar, corn syrup and vinegar. Bring to a boil, and heat to the hard crack stage, 300 to 310 degrees F (149 to 154 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads. Do not stir once the mixture begins to boil.
2. 2 While you wait for the sugar to come up to temperature, grease a 7x11 inch baking dish. When the mixture reaches the hard crack stage, remove from heat, and quickly stir in the baking soda with a long handled spoon; it will become very foamy. Pour immediately into the prepared dish, and set aside to cool. Cut into little pieces when cool.
3. 3 If you wish to coat the candies with chocolate, melt the chocolate chips in a metal bowl over a pan of simmering water, stirring occasionally until smooth. If the chocolate is too thick, some vegetable oil may be added. Dip pieces of candy in chocolate, and place on waxed paper until set.

By Debbie Rowe

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• peanut
• sugar
• corn syrup
• water

Instructions

1. 1 Lay out several sheets of foil to spoon the hot peanut brittle onto.
2. 2 In a large skillet mix the sugar, syrup, and water together. Cook at a medium-high heat, stirring regularly. Heat until the mixture has a hard ball consistency. Heat to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball. If you don't own a candy thermometer, occasionally hold spoon above mixture, allowing it to drip off spoon. When mixture is at hard ball stage, it will 'hair' off the spoon when falling, looking like a clear spider web.
3. 3 Once mixture is at hard ball consistency, add raw peanuts. (They will pop a little.) When mixture starts to turn a light clear-brown, as if it's starting to burn, remove from stove. Add soda and stir. Mixture will foam up.
4. 4 Spoon out bite-size pieces onto unbuttered foil, stirring constantly between each couple of pieces. Mixture can also be poured onto unbuttered foil as one big piece and broken into smaller pieces once cooled.

1. 1 Gather all ingredients.
2. 2 Line a baking dish with parchment paper, measure out baking soda in a small bowl, and have a heat-proof spatula ready before starting.
3. 3 Whisk sugar, corn syrup, water, and honey together in a saucepan with a candy thermometer attached. Heat over medium heat until the mixture is thinner but still cloudy. Let bubble until the mixture is clear and the thermometer registers 300 degrees F (149 degrees C).
4. 4 Remove from heat. Whisk in baking soda until just incorporated.
5. 5 Switch to a spatula and very carefully pour into the lined dish. Do not spread it out with your spatula or compress the mixture at all, or the bubbles will deflate. Let cool completely, at least 30 minutes.

By Sue Lavey

Ingredients

• ✓ baking soda
• white sugar
• heavy cream
• butter
• vanilla extract
• pecan

Instructions

1. 1 Butter a 9x13-inch dish and a medium, heavy saucepan.
2. 2 Combine 4 cups sugar and cream in the buttered saucepan. Set aside.
3. 3 Pour remaining 2 cups sugar in a large heavy skillet over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until sugar begins to melt.
4. 4 Place the saucepan with sugar and cream over low heat, stirring occasionally.
5. 5 Continue to cook and stir sugar in the skillet until completely melted and light brown. Pour melted sugar very slowly, in a thin stream, into the lightly simmering cream, stirring constantly. This step may take about 5 minutes, and works best if someone pours the melted sugar very slowly.
6. 6 Heat, without stirring, to 242 to 248 degrees F (116 to 120 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a firm but pliable ball. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda (mixture will foam). Drop the butter into the foaming mixture and let rest without stirring for 30 minutes.
7. 7 Stir in vanilla with a wooden spoon and continue to stir vigorously until mixture loses its gloss, 10 to 15 minutes. Then fold in pecans and quickly turn candy into the prepared 9x13-inch dish. Let cool until just warm and cut into 1-inch pieces.
