Not-so-brittle brittle

My big friends decided to make some cashew brittle.



Here's the mass of nuts and sugary goodness spread out on a piece of parchment paper.



After I tested out the brittle by sitting on it, my big friends broke it into pieces.



I jumped into the pile... and began digging for treasures!



Behold this mighty stray cashew!



I ate a piece of the cashew brittle.  It was strangely chewy and not brittle.  Days later it took on an odd consistency.  My big friends must have messed up making it.  Oh, well.  Everyone makes mistakes!
