Sometimes, a girl just needs some caramel corn.

Way back in the day there was this amazing microwavable caramel corn that was my most favorite movie night treat in all the world. And… then it disappeared off store shelves to never be seen again. What’s a girl to do? Well, apparently it’s not enjoy warm gooey caramel popcorn for years and years until they stumble across the notion that they can just make it themself.

This caramel corn takes it a step further. It’s able to be homemade with all your own ingredients and with little time and effort. And let me just tell you, this stuff is delicious!

I love that this Caramel Popcorn can be made ahead of time too. With the caramel coating you can make it a few hours ahead of time and then enjoy it when you’re ready to. And don’t forget to toss the popped corn in the salt since the sweet and the salty aspect that goes along with caramel corn is important!

This Caramel Popcorn doesn’t get crunchy. It stays somewhere between crunchy and soft. If you’re looking for crunchy caramel popcorn, stay tuned!
