Zubereitung von Quacker Jacks Cracker Jacks Copycat
- **Step 1: Pop the Popcorn:** Pop 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels according to package directions. Set aside to cool slightly.
- **Step 2: Prepare the Peanut Mixture:** In a large saucepan over medium heat, combine the brown sugar, molasses, butter, corn syrup, and salt. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
- **Step 3: Combine and Coat:** Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract and baking soda. The mixture will foam up slightly. Quickly add the popped popcorn and peanuts; toss gently to coat evenly.
