Ingredients
- 9 oz bag puff corn
- 1 c. butter
- 1 c. packed brown sugar
- ½ c. light corn syrup
- 1 tsp baking soda
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
- Line a large rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper and spread puff corn out evenly. Set aside.
- In a large saucepan heat butter, brown sugar and corn syrup over medium-high heat, whisking frequently, until it reaches a boil and boil for 2 minutes.
- Add baking soda to the mixture. This will cause the mixture to foam. Continue to stir until it is not foaming as much. This will take about 1-2 minutes.
- Pour caramel mixture over the puff corn and stir until evenly coated. Spread out puff corn evenly on a sheet pan.
- Place the sheet pan in a preheated oven for 45 minutes. Stir at least every 10-15 minutes.
- Remove from the oven and let cool. Break into smaller pieces.
- Store in an airtight container or Ziploc bag for up to one week.
Notes
- Remember to get your baking sheet ready with the puff corn on it before you make the caramel sauce. That way, you can pour the hot sauce over it without waiting.
- When you make the caramel, stir carefully so you don’t splash sugar on the sides of the pan. This can cause the sugar to crystallize and make your sauce grainy. So, stir frequently but gently.
- Don’t leave out the baking soda! It is an important ingredient in the caramel sauce and keeps the caramel soft even after it cools. If you leave it out, the sauce will harden and be really chewy.
- It keeps well at room temperature for up to a week! Just keep it in an airtight container. It’s perfect for gifting since it keeps so well!
