ingredients

1 cup water
2 cups sugar
¹⁄₂ cup light corn syrup
¹⁄₂ cup red chile honey (honey that has red chilies in it)
2 teaspoons salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
4 garlic cloves, roasted and pureed
¹⁄₄ teaspoon baking soda

directions

To make chili honey, take the honey and place 4 chilies (I roasted them slightly first) and then place in a jar overnight.
If you want, you can puree some of the chilies with the garlic for a extra kick.
For the Brittle: Line 2 baking sheets with parchment or waxed paper.
Combine the water and sugar in a large nonstick heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium-high heat.
Stir to dissolve the sugar, 4 to 5 minutes.
Add the corn syrup, honey, and salt, and stir constantly and slowly with a wooden spoon until the mixture comes to a gentle boil, about 2 minutes.
Continue stirring until the mixture reaches 290°F on a candy thermometer.
Remove the pan from the heat.
Add the butter, garlic puree, and baking soda and stir until the butter is completely melted, about 1 minute.
Pour the mixture onto the baking sheets, being careful as it is very hot, and spread it evenly with a rubber spatula.
Let cool completely.
Break the brittle into shards.
