Almond Roca Gourmet Popcorn Recipes

ALMOND ROCA GOURMET POPCORN

Steps:

• Place popped popcorn in a large roasting pan that has been sprayed with a non-stick spray and set aside.
• In saucepan on low heat mix sugars, butter, salt, and corn syrup. Let mixture come to a soft boil and place lid on pan for 30 seconds. Remove lid and stir with clean spoon. This is done so all sugar and salt crystals are dissolved and none get back in the mixture. Turn heat down and let boil gently with out a lid for 5 minutes stirring constantly.
• When 5 minutes are up remove from heat and stir in baking soda. Syrup will foam but this is normal. Stir until baking soda is completely dissolved. Add butter flavoring and stir. Pour over popcorn slowly stirring popcorn constantly, coating all the popcorn gently. When popcorn is coated, pour almonds in and stir well. Place in a preheated oven at 225 degrees for 1 hour. Popcorn needs to be stirred and mixed through every 15 minutes. When popcorn is finished baking pour onto a non-stick service and let cool.

ALMOND ROCA RECIPE - (4/5)

Steps:

• Butter a 7 by 11 inch pan. Sprinkle 1 cup of toasted almonds on bottom of the pan. Set aside. In heavy saucepan at medium-high heat melt butter and add brown sugar. Stir until gently boiling. Reduce heat to medium or medium-low and boil until a candy thermometer reads 300°F or the hard crack stage, about 12 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from heat and stir to thoroughly blend butter and sugar. Pour hot mixture into pan over almonds. Place chocolate bars on top of warm toffee. When melted, spread chocolate carefully. Sprinkle with remaining toasted almonds and gently press them into the chocolate. Cool completely. Break into chunks with a sharp knife. Store in a covered container. Toffee doesn't like humidity, so make it on a dry day!

EASY HOMEMADE ALMOND ROCA

Steps:

• Over Medium heat, melt butter in a large pot.
• Add corn syrup, water and sugar to pot and cook until temp reaches 290 degrees OR until the mixture becomes the color of a brown paper bag (about 15-20 minutes) stirring constantly with a wooden spoon (mixture will rise and bubble quite a bit).
• Remove from heat and Stir in 1/2 of the Almonds.
• Turn mixture onto a greased cookie sheet WITH EDGES!
• While the mixture is cooling, melt the chocolate over low flame until all the chips are gone, and chocolate is smooth.
• Score the Almond butter mixture into the shape you desire (I just scored into rectangle shapes).
• Pour the hot chocolate over the almond mixture and spread evenly.
• Sprinkle with remaining almonds and allow candy to cool completely and chocolate to harden before breaking apart and serving.
• Note: I let mine refrigerate over night after breaking the into squares, and they had a better texture this way, we thought.

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil.
• Sprinkle 1/2 the chocolate and 1/2 the almonds onto the prepared baking sheet.
• Melt sugar and butter together in a stainless steel pan over low heat; increase heat to medium, stirring constantly, until boiling. Heat mixture to 310 degrees F (155 degrees C) or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms hard, brittle threads, 30 minutes to 1 hour.
• Pour butter-sugar mixture over chocolate and almonds on baking sheet. Sprinkle remaining chocolate and almonds over butter-sugar mixture. Cool to room temperature and refrigerate until set, about 1 hour. Break into pieces.
