We all start eating it right away but I do prefer it after it has had time to cool. It's a real treasure to create! P.S. You might want to break it up with your hands as it starts to cool.

EASY PEASY CARAMEL POPCORN

Caramel Popcorn - this recipe was adapted from the very first microwave my parents bought back in the early 80's. That was a do everything in the microwave, and I guess you still could, it was just easier for me to adapt. I do microwave the popcorn in the MicroPopper, but do the rest on the stovetop.

Steps:

  • Pop your popcorn - the most time consuming thing is making sure all of the unpopped kernels are removed. I place the popcorn in a large aluminum roasting pan(easy clean up and large enough to stir up).
  • In a saucepan, start your butter melting over medium heat. When the butter is melting, add the brown sugar and mix up and add the marshmallows. When the marshmallows are melted, pour over the popcorn and stir up with a wooden spoon, making sure everything is coated. I love this recipe!

  • From my experience, with this recipe, it is best to have everything ready, including your timer, any extra treats like peanuts or pretzels, everything, before you start cooking anything. When working with caramel you need to work quickly and efficiently to avoid the caramel burning or hardening before it is supposed to.
  • I also recommend watching the video above just to see exactly the way everything goes. That being said, I am sure the instructions are good enough! I wrote them myself.
  • First, measure out all of your ingredients and get out your equipment, including a timer. This includes making your popcorn, pouring the popcorn on top of your cooling racks to remove unpopped kernels, and into your large bowl.
  • Also, getting your large rimmed baking sheet ready with a silpat liner or tinfoil coated in cooking spray.

  • While stirring continuously, bring the butter mixture to a boil. Boil for 4 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent scorching. Add in the vanilla extract, stirring well to combine. At this point, the caramel should be the hard crack stage (a candy thermometer should read 300°F, or see notes if you don't have a candy thermometer).
  • Add in the baking soda and the boil for 1 more minute. The mixture should get very fluffy and foamy. Remove from heat.
