Cheats coconut brittle

This is done in the microwave mainly - a little treat that takes minutes to make - delicious with the macadamia nuts!
As microwaves vary on cooking strength - check these times halfway for each cooking period.

1 cup flaked coconut

1 cup white sugar

1/2 cup corn syrup

4 ounces chopped macadamia nuts

1 tablespoon butter

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

1 teaspoon baking soda

Spread coconut evenly over a buttered baking sheet.

In a medium microwave-safe bowl, combine sugar and corn syrup. Microwave on high 3 minutes.
Stir in nuts and microwave 4 minutes more.
Stir in butter and vanilla and return to microwave for 1 minute.
Stir in soda until light and slightly foamy.
Pour over coconut on sheet. Let cool until firm (1 hour at least).
Break into pieces - enjoy!!!
