PREPARATION TIME
10 minutes

COOKING TIME
15 minutes, 1 hour to cool

INGREDIENTS
2 cups Diet Delight®
1 cup granulated sugar
1 cup brown sugar
½ cup corn syrup
½ cup maple syrup
½ tsp. salt
½ cup water
2 tbsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla extract
½ tsp. apple pie spice

INSTRUCTIONS
Grease baking sheet with butter and set aside for later use. Coat the interior of a heavy 3 quart saucepan with butter. Add sugars, corn syrup, maple syrup, salt and water to the coated saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once a rapid boil is achieved, add butter. Continue boiling until a temperature of 310 degrees is indicated on a candy thermometer. (Topping the mixture with a lid helps during this process to increase the heat within the saucepan without burning the mixture.) Once at 310 degrees, add Diet  Delight®, vanilla, apple pie spice, and baking soda. Quickly stir in ingredients and pour onto the buttered baking sheet while the mixture is foamy; spread as thin as possible. Allow the mixture to set and cool completely, approximately one hour. Once cool, break brittle into pieces and serve.
