Ingredients

Servings
  • 1/2 cup uncooked popcorn kernels (it makes about 13 cups popped)
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 cup light karo syrup
  • 1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

  1. Pop your popcorn kernels in an air popper machine and pop into a large bowl. Set aside.
  2. On medium-high heat in a medium saucepan, cook the brown sugar, butter, and Karo syrup. Allow coming to a boil. Add sweetened condensed milk.
  3. Allow to softly boil for about 3-4 minutes until it gets to the softball stage. Be careful to not cook too long and allow it to burn.
  4. Remove from heat and carefully stir in baking soda.
  5. Pour the caramel over the popped popcorn. Mix with a wooden spoon to make sure that it can all be coated evenly.
  6. Preheat your oven to 250 degrees. Spread the popcorn evenly on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Bake for 45 minutes stirring every 15 minutes. It is ok if there are clumps.
  7. Remove from the oven and let cool. Break up any clumps and enjoy!
