CRACKER JACK - COPYCAT
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
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.

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.
JACK DANIEL'S TIPSY CAKE
I wanted to post this so I don't ever lose it again. In college, my bestest friend, Alan, and I visited the Opryland Hotel with his parents at Christmas. In one of the gift shops in the hotel, they sell these, as well as at the little shop in Lynchburg. She served this cake and coffee after we got back to their place and opened presents. It was glorious (and not cheap by any means). So, I came home and started searching, playing, and experimenting. I found this through Google and it's exactly like what we had that night. If you're wondering what it's like..think chocolate-coffee-flavored cake on a bender. YUM!

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350-375 degrees, depending on how your oven bakes (it's different for everyone!).
- Melt chocolate and set aside to cool down a bit.
- Dissolve the coffee granules in the boiling water. When dissolved, stir in the cold water. Add the whiskey and set aside.
- In a large electric mixer, cream the butter, vanilla, and sugar. Add the eggs, one at a time, beating well after each addition. Add the chocolate.
- With the mixer on low, add the flour alternating with the coffee/whiskey mixture.
- ****The batter WILL BE THIN & RUNNY.**** Do NOT add more flour.
- Pour into two prepared loaf pans (I always make one small and one large-one to keep, one to give away.).
- Bake until a toothpick comes out clean, about an hour to an hour and a half. Cool. Sprinkle with powdered sugar when serving.

CRACKER JACK DANIELS
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250. Put the cooked popcorn in a roaster pan and place in the preheated oven. If you want almonds or other nuts, add them here to heat them up too. Combine all the remaining ingredients in a saucepan. Stirring over medium heat, bring the mixture to a boil. Using a cooking thermometer bring the mixture to the hard boil stage (260). This will take about 20 to 25 minutes. You will notice the mixture turning dark brown. The alcohol cooks off and so does the water from the bourbon, leaving behind just the flavor. Remove the popcorn from the oven. Use a whisk to drizzle the caramel mixture in a fine stream over the popcorn and stir the popcorn at the same time. Get it coated pretty liberally. You know how Cracker Jacks look. That's what you're shooting for. You might not have to use all the caramel mixture. Place the roaster pan back in the oven for 15 minutes. Mix well every 5 minutes, so that all the popcorn is coated. Remove from oven. As the popcorn cools, gently sift every minute to get them to separate and not clump. Use a spoon early so you don't burn yourself with the carmel, but use your hands later to break up the clumps. It will keep trying to clump until the caramel hardens. This takes about 5 minutes. You could have almonds or other nuts with the popcorn, for an even fancier candy -- and more like Cracker Jacks too. Cool and store in a covered container. Mike Dayoub Alpharetta, GA
