    Title: Miss Hilda's Popcorn Cake
    Categories: Five, Nuts, Candy, Desserts
    Yield: 9 servings

    1 c Lightly salted cocktail
    - peanuts
    1 lb Mini-marshmallows
    2 c M&M candies
    1/4 lb Unsalted butter
    16 c Popped popcorn; plain,
    - unsalted, unbuttered
    2 ts + 1/4 c vegetable oil

    Grease a large tube or Bundt cake pan with 2 teaspoons
    of the oil. Set aside.

    In a large bowl, mix the popped corn with the M&Ms and
    the peanuts and set aside.

    In a medium saucepan, melt the butter, the remaining 1/4
    cup vegetable oil, and the marshmallows over medium-low
    heat, stirring occasionally. When melted, use oven mitts
    or pot holders to remove saucepan from heat and pour
    marshmallows over the popcorn mixture. Stir to combine.

    Spoon mixture into the prepared cake pan. Using your
    hands or the back of a spoon, press firmly so that the
    mixture is compacted.

    Cover with aluminum foil to keep moist. Let sit for
    about 3 to 4 hours, or until firm and set.

    To serve, invert the cake pan onto a large plate or
    platter. Shake gently to release the cake.

    Serve at room temperature.
