Homemade Caramel Popcorn:

Caramel Popcorn Ingredients:

• 10 cups popped popcorn
• 1 cup unsalted butter
• 2 cups brown sugar
• 1/2 cup corn syrup
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Now Ready for Instructions:

1. Preheat your oven to 250°F. Place popped popcorn in a large roasting pan.
   
2. Now it's time for making caramel sauce: In a medium saucepan, melt 1 cup of unsalted butter over medium heat. The butter should melt and be evenly distributed on the whole pan. Make sure not to burn it, so the heat should be at medium.
   
3. Boil the caramel mixture: Once the butter is fully melted, stir in 2 cups of brown sugar, 1/2 cup of corn syrup, and 1 teaspoon of salt. Mix all these ingredients until they are well combined.
   
4. Now, add baking soda and vanilla: Remove the saucepan from heat. Quickly stir in 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda and 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. The mixture will bubble up vigorously, creating a foamy texture. This reaction helps to expand the caramel, making it easier to coat the popcorn evenly.
   
5. Coat the popcorn: Pour the caramel sauce over the popcorn in the roasting pan. Stir it well to coat all the popcorn evenly. Use a spatula to mix the caramel sauce into the popcorn, taking your time to ensure it is well-coated.
   
6. Bake the popcorn: Place the roasting pan in the preheated oven. Bake it for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure even coating and prevent burning. This step helps the caramel set on the popcorn and gives it a nice crunch.
