Cost:

Main Ingredients:

200 ml granulated sugar

100 ml treacle (molasses)

125 g butter

2 l popped popcorn

200 g salted peanuts

Cooking Preparation of the Recipe:

Proceed as follows:

Mix sugar, treacle and butter in a pan. Bring to a slow boil.

After a few minutes, by means of a teaspoon take a small sample of the boiling mixture (be careful, the mixture is very hot) and let it drip into a glass of cold water. If the mixture solidifies into a hard lump, it is ready. If not, continue the boiling and repeat the test after a few minutes.

Add the peanuts and the popped popcorn. Mix carefully, you will have to stir forcefully for at least a minute.

Pour the mixture onto any cold, clean metal surface and let it solidify.

Break up the solid mass in small pieces.

Serve the popcorn crunch in a small bowl. It will keep for days as long as there are no children (or adults) around.
