Mixture should be bubbly and peanuts should appear slightly browned. Stir in butter and vanilla and microwave an additional two minutes.
Remove from microwave and quickly stir in baking soda ( HINT, bowl will be hot you may want to consider wearing pot holers) stir until mixture is "foamy/fluffy" in appearance. Spread in to pre greased cookie pan and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Once cooled, break apart in pieces and store in air tight containers... Enjoy!
