    Ingredients
    10 cups popcorn¹
    1/2 cup 1 stick unsalted butter (113g)
    1 cup light brown sugar firmly packed (200g)
    1/3 cup dark brown sugar² 66g
    1/4 cup light corn syrup 60ml

    Instructions
    00:00 Introduction
    00:22 Preheat oven to 250F (120C). Line a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and lightly grease with cooking spray.
    00:44 Place popcorn, on prepared baking sheet and place in the oven on the center rack to keep warm while you prepare the caramel coating.
    01:30 Place butter in a medium-sized saucepan over medium heat. Cook until butter is melted.
    01:46 Add brown sugars, corn syrup, and salt and cook until the sugar is dissolved.
    02:45 Bring mixture to a boil (still over medium heat), Boil for 3 minutes, stirring frequently.
    03:02 Remove caramel from heat and stir in vanilla extract and baking soda until completely combined.
    03:44 Remove popcorn from oven and drizzle caramel over popcorn. Sprinkle nuts over top (if using) and then use a spatula to stir until popcorn and nuts are mostly coated with caramel (it’ll be a little tough to get popcorn completely coated, aim for coating about 75% of the popcorn, you’ll be able to coat more later on).
    04:50 Return cookie sheet to center rack in oven and bake on 250F (120C) for 40-45 minutes, removing the popcorn every 10-15 minutes to stir.
    06:17 Once finished cooking, stir again and allow popcorn to cool completely on the baking sheet before enjoying.
    Notes
    ¹This recipe can be made with unsalted/unbuttered popcorn which you can make in an air popper or in a cast iron Dutch oven or you can use a “Homestyle” microwave popcorn for a richer flavor. I like PopSecret Homestyle.²You may substitute this for additional light brown sugar (so you would use 1 1/3 cups light brown sugar total), I just personally prefer the blend of light and dark brown sugar.

    I have been looking for this particular recipe for years. I specifically remembered that it was brown sugar based and cooked on the stove top for 3 minutes and then finished in the oven. I remember making this when I was a kid in Home Ec class and it really was the best Carmel corn I ever ate. When I’m searching for something special, I always default to your channel. I have NEVER been disappointed in the results. You’ve really got a gift. 😊

    my main issue with caramel corn is that i can't get the popcorn evenly covered. i tried your oven trick tonight & it didn't make much of a difference.
    i think when i initially pour the caramel i should try harder to coat the popcorn as evenly as i can? i have a lot of large caramel globs that just don't want to melt in the oven.
    (i am not using your recipe but i'll try it. mine is also brown sugar based but has no corn syrup.)

      does the corn syrup make the caramel easier to coax into shape? i assume it does.

    Wouldn’t it be easier to add the popcorn to the pan of caramel and stir rather than adding the caramel to the popcorn?

    • @SugarSpunRun
      @SugarSpunRun  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is easier to distribute and keeps the popcorn from getting soggy. This is the best/easiest way I've found to do it, but if you have enough room in your pan you could try adding the popcorn to the pan if you'd like. :)
