For a smoother brittle, use finely ground cinnamon. Adjust the amount of cayenne pepper to your preference for heat. Ensure your baking soda is fresh for the best foaming action. Do not overcook the brittle, as it can become hard and bitter. If you don't have a microwave, you can cook this on the stovetop over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent burning.

Apr 18, 2025My brittle turned out a bit too hard. I think I might have overcooked it slightly. I'll try reducing the microwave time next time.
