Ingredients

• 12 cups Popped popcorn
• 1 cup Unsalted butter
• 2 cups Brown sugar
• 0.5 cup Light corn syrup
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Baking soda
• 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

Directions

Step 1

Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper or silicone baking mats. Spread the popped popcorn evenly across the prepared sheets.

Step 2

In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Once melted, stir in the brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring constantly.

Step 3

Once the mixture is boiling, stop stirring and let it boil for 5 minutes without interruption.

Step 4

Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully stir in the baking soda and vanilla extract. The mixture will foam up slightly—this is normal.

Step 5

Quickly pour the caramel over the popcorn on the baking sheets, dividing it evenly. Use a heat-resistant spatula or wooden spoon to gently toss and coat the popcorn with the caramel mixture.

Step 6

Bake the caramel-coated popcorn in the preheated oven for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even coating.

Step 7

Remove the popcorn from the oven and let it cool completely on the baking sheets. The caramel will harden as it cools, creating a crunchy texture.

Step 8

Once cooled, break the caramel corn into clusters and store it in an airtight container for up to 1 week (if it lasts that long!).
