COPYCAT CRACKER JACKS CARAMEL POPCORN



Copycat Cracker Jacks Caramel Popcorn image

Frederick William Rueckheim and his brother Louis created the first Cracker Jack treat in 1896. Their original recipe was a mix of popped popcorn and roasted peanuts held together with molasses.

Time 2h

Yield 4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 6

4 cups freshly popped popcorn, lightly salted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F. Place the popcorn in a large roasting pan. Combine the sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a heavy saucepan over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, until it comes to a boil. Cook for 5 minutes at a boil without stirring. Remove the pan from the heat. Stir in the vanilla and baking soda. Pour the mixture over the popcorn, stirring to coat the popcorn in the caramel. Place the roasting pan in the oven and bake at 250 degrees F for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Remove the pan from the oven and transfer the caramel corn to a sheet of waxed paper. Let the popcorn cool. When cool, break the popcorn up into chunks and store in an airtight container. Optional, add 1 cup of peanuts to the popcorn before stirring in the caramel sauce.

Time 1h35m

Yield 11

Number Of Ingredients 6

11 cups popped popcorn
1 cup Spanish peanuts
1 ¼ cups dark brown sugar
10 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into pieces
¼ cup dark corn syrup
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C).
  • Spread popcorn in the bottom of a large, deep roasting pan. Sprinkle peanuts over the popcorn.
  • Combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt together in a saucepan over medium-high heat. Cook, whisking constantly, until sugar and butter are melted and sauce is thick and caramelized, 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Pour caramel sauce over the popcorn and peanuts and stir to coat popcorn and peanuts completely, scooping any peanuts and caramel that fall to the bottom of the roasting pan.
  • Bake in the preheated oven, stirring occasionally, until caramel and popcorn are crisped, about 45 minutes. Turn popcorn out in a single layer on a sheet of parchment paper to cool completely.

This recipe has never failed me. The popcorn turns out sweet, buttery and very crispy. If you want caramel corn, just use light corn syrup instead of dark.
