Steps:
- 1. Grease a large tube, spring form or bundt cake pan with 2 teaspoons of the oil, and set aside.
- 2. In a large bowl, mix the popped corn with the candies and the peanuts.
- 3. In a small saucepan, melt the butter, remaining 1/4 cup of oil, and marshmallows over medium-low heat, stirring occasionally. When melted, pour over the popcorn mixture, and stir to combine. Pour into the prepared cake pan, pressing down to fit. Cover with aluminum foil to keep moist and let rest until firm, 3 to 4 hours.
- 4. To serve, invert the cake pan onto a large cake plate or platter. Shake gently to release. Serve at room temperature
Tips:
- For the best results, use fresh popcorn. Stale popcorn will make a tough, chewy cake.
- Be sure to pop the popcorn until it is fully popped. Unpopped kernels will make the cake gritty.
- If you don't have a microwave, you can pop the popcorn on the stovetop. Just heat a large pot over medium heat and add the popcorn kernels. Cover the pot and shake it occasionally until the popcorn is fully popped.
- To make the cake easier to cut, chill it for at least 30 minutes before serving.
- If you want to make the cake ahead of time, you can store it in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Just be sure to bring it to room temperature before serving.
Conclusion:
Popcorn cake is a delicious and easy-to-make treat that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover popcorn, and it is also a fun and festive dessert to serve at parties. With so many different variations to choose from, there is sure to be a popcorn cake recipe that everyone will enjoy.
