Homemade Cracker Jacks

 

 

4 to 5 cups popped corn

1 cup peanuts

1/2 cup molasses

1/4 cup sugar

 

 

Mix popcorn and peanuts together in a large bowl or pan.

Cook molasses and sugar together until the mixture reaches a

tempurature of 235 degrees on a candy thermometer. If you don't have

a thermometer, test the syrup by letting some drop from a spoon into

acup of cold water. The syrup is done when it forms a thead as it

drops into the water.

Pour hot syrup mixture over the popcorn nut mixture and stir to coat

evenly. Cool and break into chunks with a wooden spoon. Stored in an

airtight container, mixture will keep well for 4 to 6 weeks.

Serves 10.
