Ingredients
- 8 cups Plain popped popcorn
- 0.5 cups Unsalted butter
- 1 cup Brown sugar
- 0.25 cups Light corn syrup
- 0.33 cups Sweetened condensed milk
- 1 teaspoons Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoons Salt
Directions
Step 1
Place the popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl, ensuring it's free of unpopped kernels. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper for later use.
Step 2
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the unsalted butter. Once melted, stir in the brown sugar and light corn syrup until combined.
Step 3
Increase the heat slightly and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly. Allow it to boil for about 3 minutes.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and slowly stir in the sweetened condensed milk. Continue to stir for 2-3 minutes until the mixture becomes thick and smooth.
Step 5
Remove the saucepan from heat and add the vanilla extract and salt. Stir until fully incorporated.
Step 6
Quickly pour the caramel mixture over the popcorn, carefully folding and stirring with a spatula to evenly coat all of the popcorn.
Step 7
Spread the caramel-coated popcorn onto the prepared baking sheet to cool for about 10-15 minutes.
Step 8
Once cooled, break the popcorn into clusters and transfer it to a serving bowl or airtight container. Enjoy!
