    Caramel Corn


    Source of Recipe


    Sunday Dinner

    List of Ingredients




    14 cups popped popcorn
    2 cups brown sugar (packed)
    1 cup butter
    1/2 cup light corn syrup
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 teaspoon baking soda

    Recipe



    Once you have popped the pop-corn, remove any unpopped kernels. Now
    place the popcorn in a buttered metal bowl and place in a 200 degree
    oven to keep warm.

    Combine the brown sugar, butter, corn syrup and salt in a saucepan and
    bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Once it begins to boil, stop
    stirring for 5 minutes, or until mixture reaches 255 degrees on candy
    thermometer.

    Remove from heat and add baking soda. The mixture will start to foam,
    so stir well until blended. Pour the hot mixture over the pop-corn and
    toss gently with well buttered forks to distribute evenly.

    Spread onto 2 ungreased baking sheets and bake at 200 degrees for 1
    hour, stirring every 15 minutes.

    Remove the carmel corm from the oven and allow to cool completely.
    Once cool, break it into clusters, and store in a tightly covered
    container.
