A friend gave me some of this a few years ago for Christmas and I couldn't stop eating it. I thought it was the best thing I ever tasted, so I got the recipe from her and now I make it for gifts.

This recipe is a great way to use up leftover egg whites. I always have a few extra egg whites in my fridge and this is the perfect way to use them up.

I was skeptical about making brittle in the microwave, but I was pleasantly surprised. It turned out just as good as the stovetop method, but it was much easier and faster.

This microwave pecan brittle is a lifesaver! I've tried making brittle on the stovetop before and it always ends up burnt or crystallized. This recipe was so easy to follow and the results were perfect. The brittle turned out golden brown and crispy,
