Pamela's Most Addicting Caramel Corn |
A dash of vanilla and a teaspoon of soda make this the ultimate, oven-baked caramel corn — pack it into festive cans or make garlands to drape over the tree.
Ingredients
- 6 quarts of popped corn (I fill my air popper twice…about two large bowls worth)
- 1 cup butter
- 1 tsp. salt
- 1/2 tsp. soda
- 2 cups packed brown sugar
- 1/2 cup corn syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla
Directions
1. In heavy saucepan, melt butter. Stir in sugar and salt; bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for about five minutes.
2. Remove from heat and stir in soda and vanilla. (Keep stirring after this till you see it foam up and “grow”.) Then gradually pour over popped corn. (I pour it over the popcorn while the popcorn is IN the bowls.)
3. Mix it up to coat the popcorn. Put the popcorn in two turkey roaster, or shallow baking pans that have been buttered. Bake 1 hour in a 250 oven, stirring every 15 minutes. Cool completely. Break apart.
