Harvest Caramel Corn!
Ingredients needed: Popcorn Salt 1/2 Cup Butter (Sweet Cream Salted) 1 Cup Brown Sugar 2 tsp. Vanilla 1/2 tsp. Baking Soda Mini Rollo’s Harvest Blend M&M Candy
How to: Pop your plain pop corn, either from the bag or over the stove Melt 1/2 cup of butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 cup of brown sugar and stir until thoroughly mixed. Stirring continuously, bring the butter and sugar mixture up to a boil and cook for 5 minutes. Add the 2 tsp. of vanilla at the 4 minute mark.
After boiling for 5 minutes, add the 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda. This will cause the caramel to change colors and foam up a bit. This is the chemical reaction that you want. The bubbling effect of the baking soda will aerate the caramel and make it lighter and smoother and therefore easier to coat the popcorn. Drizzle 3/4 of the caramel mixture over the popcorn. Save 1/4 of the mixture to the side. Use a spoon to gently fold the popcorn with the mixture until the kernels are all covered.
Now you need to get your Harvest Blend M&Ms and Mini Rolo’s to add to the Harvest Caramel Corn. To get the candy to stick to the popcorn, drizzle the remaining caramel mixture over the caramel corn and immediately sprinkle the candy on the areas with the drizzled caramel mixture. Enjoy!
