CRACKER JACK - COPYCAT



Cracker Jack - Copycat image

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.

HOMEMADE CRACKER JACK



Homemade Cracker Jack image

A salty-sweet, caramel-coated popcorn often eaten at baseball games, Cracker Jack is one of the many well-known confections from Chicago. While molasses-covered popcorn was already popular in the Northeast, the creation of Cracker Jack's special formula is credited to German brothers Frederick William and Louis Rueckheim. Besides coming up with the signature combination of popcorn, molasses and peanuts, they even devised a special package to keep it fresh and crisp. By the late 1800s, the snack was so loved that their company was producing four-and-a-half tons a day. This homemade version is best enjoyed the day it's made, though it will keep for up to three days in an airtight container. Use large, red-skinned peanuts in this recipe if you can find them, as the skins lend a pleasant bitterness that works well with the molasses-caramel coating.

Time 45m

Yield About 16 cups

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 tablespoons neutral oil, plus more for greasing the pans
1/2 cup popcorn kernels
1 cup roasted, salted red-skinned peanuts
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 cup unsalted butter, chopped into pieces
1 packed cup light brown sugar
1/4 cup molasses
3/4 teaspoon kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more for sprinkling

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 250 degrees and grease two large rimmed baking sheets with neutral oil.
  • Add the remaining 3 tablespoons neutral oil and 2 kernels to a large pot. Cover and heat over medium. Once you hear those first two kernels pop, add the remaining kernels, cover and cook, shaking occasionally, until the popping slows down, about 4 to 6 minutes. You should hear a few seconds of silence between pops. Remove from the heat.
  • Transfer the popcorn to a large, heatproof bowl and discard any unpopped kernels. Add the peanuts to the popcorn and toss to combine. Set the vanilla and baking soda near the stove for easy access.
  • In a small saucepan, stir the butter, brown sugar, molasses and salt over medium until the butter melts. Once the butter has melted, attach a candy thermometer to the side of the pan and cook the mixture, undisturbed, until the temperature reaches 248 degrees.
  • Remove from the heat and immediately stir in the vanilla and baking soda. The mixture will become foamy. Immediately pour it over the popcorn and use a wooden spoon to coat it evenly.
  • Spread the popcorn out onto the two prepared baking sheets. Bake until the mixture is dry, about 20 to 25 minutes, tossing occasionally. The mixture will dry out as it cools but may still be slightly sticky. Sprinkle with a bit more salt, to taste.
  • Let the popcorn cool completely. It's best enjoyed the day it's cooked, but you can also store it in an airtight container for up to 3 days.

Categories     Desserts     Candy Recipes     Popcorn Candy Recipes

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.
