Made this exactly as per recipe, did not cook as long. Turned out perfect. We mixed splenda and cocoa powder and cinnamon, dusted it. YUMM! -
The amount of popcorn is not correct. I think maybe you mean 4 quarts of popped popcorn. I thought it sounded wrong, but I found out for sure when I made 4 times the caramel sauce and 5 times the popcorn. There was still way too much caramel. I think if someone figures out the right ratio this will be a good recipe.

I'm sorry, I really wanted this to be a good recipe, but I just don't think so. Maybe I did something wrong. The "caramel" sauce, seemed to drown the popcorn, and although the extra liquid evaporated in the oven, it turned Cracker-Jack brown and I ended up taking it out in about a half-hour. The texture is different than regular caramel corn, and so is the flavor (although, the flavor wasn't too bad). I think, considering the price of Swerve, I will not be trying this one again. And so I move onward, in my quest for sugar-free caramel corn. Thanks, anyway.

This is more of a question than a review. Can anyone tell me if baking the caramel corn for 1 hour at 275 degrees is absolutely necessary? I tried it and ended up taking it out after only 30 minutes. It seemed to me that it was burning and tasted better before I ever baked it at all. Thank you!! -
I'm always willing to try a new recipe for this kind of treat, & you've got a good one here, for sure! Easy enough to make, too! Thanks for sharing it!

My DH and I (34 yrs) had an empty nest for about 4 years. In Sept 07 our 20 something daughter moved back and in April 08 her oldest sister move in with our 3 grandchildren, 7, 6 & 2. I own my own business and work from home. Believe me this was much easier when it was me and the cat all day. I come to RecipeZaar frequently looking for new ideas, things that the kids will enjoy, as well as us grown-ups. The 2 older boys are die-hard chicken nugget or hot dog fans. Never a dull moment! I just keep telling myself that it keeps me young!
I am famous for my Prime Rib sandwiches. I serve them for the Rose Bowl and Super Bowl get togethers. I can never make enough......
