Hey everyone, okay so I have been making a couple of different
baking recipes, and I can’t wait to share them. Yesterday while on my way home.
I finally remembered what my YouTube account information was, and I was able to
log into my account. I had no attentions on making homemade caramel popcorn. Once I
watched the video and saw how simple it was to make, I ran in the house and
started the process. The original video I watched was made with homemade
popcorn. I had NO intentions on running to the store so I made this recipe with
the microwavable popcorn that is pre-packaged… Let’s just say that the popcorn
did not make it into the oven. It was so delish!! I plan on making this recipe
again today very soon. I honestly cannot tell you if my family enjoyed this treat. I pretty
much ate a good portion of this caramel popcorn.
PS. Also, I will probably double the caramel sauce for this recipe.
If I am unable to fully cover the popcorn the next time I make this recipe.
Recipe:
- 5 Tablespoons of butter
- 1/2 Cup of brown sugar
- 1/4 Cup corn syrup
1 teaspoonsalt(I did not use salt, I used salted butter. Plus the popcorn was salted)- 1/2 Teaspoon baking soda
- 1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
- 8 cups of popcorn (I used microwaveable popcorn)
Directions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place popcorn in a very large bowl.
- In a small saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar and corn syrup. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil without stirring 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda and vanilla. Pour in a thin stream over popcorn, stirring to coat.
- Place in two large shallow baking dishes and bake in preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, for 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool completely before breaking into pieces.
If you try this recipe, let me know. Leave a comment, pin it (so you have it saved), and don’t forget to tag a picture use the hashtag >> #simplytasheena on Instagram. I would love to see how it turned out.
Thank You For Stopping By!

My girlfriends made this while I was visiting her in Ohio this year. All I can say is...OMG! And she made two batches, one with almonds and one without. I ate until I was literrally embarassed! It was sooooo good!
ReplyDeleteShe also used microwave popcorn. Thanks for sharing!
You are such a domestic diva! I'm so lazy, I would just buy a bag! I love caramel popcorn!
ReplyDeleteI love caramel and/or toffee popcorn, but I have to stay away from it because when I buy a box I can eat it in one day (if I allow myself to), LOL!! But I have always wanted to try to make my own caramel popcorn and with the weather getting ready to change this is right on time with Fall!!
