Ingredients

The ingredients are:
  • 2 gallons plain popped popcorn (this is about 2 cup unpopped)
  • 1/2 cup salted butter (no margaine only butter)
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 2 cups brown sugar (I use light brown)
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/4 teaspoon baking soda (scant 1/4 tsp)
  • Coarse salt
We recommend you get your ingredients ready before you start cooking. Once you're ready, here are the steps to making this delicious recipe

How to Make

  • Step 1: In a large deep saucepan, melt butter, sugar, corn syrup, and water. Stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a rolling boil (meaning there are bubbles all across the surface rather than one or two here and there).

  • Step 2: Turn off the heat immediately stir in baking soda quickly. As mixture becomes a bit foamy, stir over popcorn until well coated. Spread popcorn out onto greased wax paper to cool and sprinkle with salt while still warm and not fully set. Store any leftovers in a very well sealed container.

We hope you enjoy this recipe!
