directions

  • Pop the popcorn.
  • To make the caramel, place the sugar, corn syrup, and 1/4 cup water in a large saucepan (large enough to hold the popcorn) and cook until the caramel turns a light golden brown. Add baking soda and butter to the caramel. Then add the popcorn to the hot caramel and stir with a wooden spoon until the popcorn is evenly coated.
  • Pour the caramelized popcorn onto a parchment-paper-lined baking sheet and set aside to cool. Break up the popcorn with your hands. Serve in colored-cellophane bags.

  1. This caramel popcorn is the easiest & best I've tried. I salt the popcorn lightly before adding to the caramel for a "salted carmel" flavor that is so popular. Make sure you double what you think you need because it goes super fasat. Also, make sure you make it in your largest pot (I used my huge stock pot) since it's best to add popcorn to the caramel and not the other way around.
