Yield 1 cake, 18 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 6

3 quarts popped popcorn, remove unpopped kernels
3/4 cup butter
1/4 cup vegetable oil
1 (16 ounce) bag miniature marshmallows
1 (8 ounce) container roasted unsalted peanuts

Steps:

  • Butter a bundt pan.

  • Pour melted marshmallow mixture over corn, nuts and candies.
  • Mix well, working quickly.
  • Press mixture firmly into pan.
  • Turn cake out immediately onto a large plate.
  • Let “set” overnight for easy cutting.
  • You may also use a 13 x 9 x 2 inch buttered pan and leave in pan for cutting.
  • For Halloween make balls.

Time 1h30m

Yield 10-12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 18.25-ounce box yellow cake mix (plus required ingredients)
4 cups vanilla frosting
Cornstarch, for dusting
1 pound white rolled fondant
1/2 pound red rolled fondant
2 to 3 cups caramel corn

Steps:

  • Prepare the cake mix as the label directs for a 9-by-13-inch cake; bake and cool. Cut in half crosswise. Spread frosting on one half, then top with the second half. Cover the layer cake with frosting.
  • Dust a flat surface with cornstarch. Using a rolling pin, roll out the white fondant to at least 16 by 18 inches large (about 1/8 inch thick).
  • Drape the white fondant over the cake, covering the cake but leaving one short end exposed with a slight overhang, as shown. Smooth the fondant, then cut away any excess, except for the overhang.
  • Roll out the red fondant on a cornstarch-dusted surface to /16 inch thick. Cut into about 15 strips that are 14 by 1/2 inch each.
  • One at a time, spread some water on the back of each red fondant strip with your finger and attach to the cake, as shown, trimming the strips as needed. (Do not use too much water, or the red dye will bleed.)
  • Press some of the caramel corn onto the uncovered side of the cake. Continue adding caramel corn until it looks like the bag is overflowing, using more frosting to stick the pieces together.
