Ingredients You’ll Need:
- Topsy’s Buttered Popcorn
- 1 cup of butter
- 1 cup of brown sugar
- 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract
- 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda
Step 1: Prepare the Popcorn
Start by purchasing a bag of your favorite Topsy’s Buttered Popcorn according to the package instructions. Make sure it’s perfectly popped and ready for the caramelization process.
Step 2: Make the Caramel Sauce
In a saucepan over medium heat, melt 1 cup of butter. Once the butter is completely melted, add 1 cup of brown sugar to the saucepan. Stir continuously until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture turns into a smooth, rich caramel sauce. This should take about 2-3 minutes.
Step 3: Add Flavor with Vanilla
Remove the caramel sauce from the heat and carefully stir in 2 tablespoons of vanilla extract. Vanilla will infuse the caramel with a warm and aromatic flavor that complements the popcorn beautifully.
Step 4: Mix in Baking Soda
Sprinkle 1/2 teaspoon of baking soda into the caramel sauce. The baking soda will cause the caramel to bubble and expand, creating a lighter texture. Stir until the baking soda is fully incorporated.
Step 5: Coat the Popcorn
Place your freshly popped Topsy’s Buttered Popcorn in a large mixing bowl. Gradually pour the warm caramel sauce over the popcorn while gently tossing and stirring to ensure an even coating. Be cautious, as the caramel sauce will be hot!
Step 6: Bake and Cool
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Spread the caramel-coated popcorn evenly on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Bake for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes to ensure the caramel evenly coats the popcorn.
Once done, allow the caramel popcorn to cool completely.
