Goo Goo Clusters Recipes

HOMEMADE GOO GOO CLUSTERS

Steps:

• Place the wafer paper in the bottom of a jelly roll pan, and set aside. The paper should not overlap. Pour egg whites into the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with the whisk attachment; set aside. Measure out powdered sugar and salt. Set aside until needed.
• In a medium saucepan, stir the honey, corn syrup, water, and granulated sugar together. Wipe down the sides of the pan with a pastry brush dipped in water to rinse down any sugar granules. Place the saucepan over medium heat and cook until it just begins to simmer - about 4 minutes. Clip a candy thermometer onto the side of the saucepan; continue to heat, stirring occasionally.
• When the thermometer registers 310°F, remove the honey mixture from heat. The temperature will rise to 320°F degrees while the mixture sits in the pan off the heat. Stir until temperature drops to 300°F degrees, and quickly make the meringue.
• Begin to beat the egg whites on medium speed. Once the egg whites are frothy, lower the speed, add the salt and confectioner's sugar, and then return to medium speed to whisk the meringue to soft peaks. Turn up the mixer speed to high, and, with mixer running, slowly pour the honey mixture into the egg-white mixture (see video above). Beat until mixture thickens (approximately 5 minutes) and begins to stick to beaters. Once the nougat has thickened and is getting trapped inside the whisk, remove the mixer bowl from the stand.
• Dust your countertop with cornstarch. Pour the mixture onto the cornstarch-covered surface. Gently knead about 7 turns - careful, it is still hot! Dust off excess starch. Stretch and roll to fit the pan; place the mixture in pan. Let cool on a wire rack for a few hours. Cut the desired number and size of rounds with a metal biscuit or cookie cutter. (I used a 1 1/4 inch cutter that fit my tartlet molds)

GOO GOO CLUSTERS

Steps:

• Preheat your broiler to low. Unwrap all of the caramels. Using your hands, shape three caramels into a round shape and place on a parchment paper-lined baking sheet. Make them a bit cup shaped to hold the marshmallows.
• Top the caramels with 5-6 mini marshmallows and place under the broiler until soft but not toasted. Press peanuts onto the marshmallows and push on to adhere. Place the entire pan into the freezer until fully set.
• Meanwhile melt the chocolate coating according to package directions.
• Remove Goo Goo clusters from the freezer and using a spoon, drip chocolate on the tops of the candy. Return to freezer and chill until set.
• Flip the candies over and cover the bottom of the candy with chocolate. Place in the freezer to set. Remove and let candy come to room temperature. Serve.

GOOGOO CLUSTER CAKE

Steps:

• 1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 9x13 cake pan.
• 2. Mix together the pumpkin water and cake mix.
• 3. Using a knife draw lines on the cake to make 16 pieces in each square place a rolo.
• 4. Bake for 35 to 40 minutes. Pull cake out and sprinkle the marshmallows generously all over the top of the cake, then sprinkle the nuts over the marshmallows and return the cake to the oven for about 10 more minutes. This cake takes longer than usual to bake so check the cake for doneness before adding the marshmallows and nuts. The cake must have a nice firm top.
• 5. Once the marshmallows have melted you will see the nuts are incorporated in the marshmallow.
• 6. Let cake completely cool.
• 7. Melt the chocolate chips in a double broiler watching and stirring constantly. Add milk to thin out the chocolate just a bit.
• 8. Pour the melted chocolate over the cooled cake and refrigerate till the topping has become firm. Enjoy!
