Comment préparer Old Fashioned Molasses Caramel Corn

  1. Preheat oven to 250°F (120°C). Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
  2. In a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat, combine the molasses, butter, brown sugar, and salt. Stir constantly until the butter is melted and the sugar is dissolved.
  3. Bring the mixture to a boil, stirring frequently. Continue to boil, without stirring, until the mixture reaches 245°F (118°C) on a candy thermometer (firm-ball stage). This should take about 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to burn it.
  4. Remove from heat and immediately stir in the baking soda. The mixture will foam up – be careful!
  5. Pour the caramel evenly over the popcorn in the prepared baking sheet. Toss gently to coat all the popcorn thoroughly.
  6. Spread the caramel corn in a single layer on the baking sheet.
  7. Bake for 20-30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes, until the caramel is set and no longer sticky. If caramel seems to be drying to fast, slightly cover the pan with foil.
  8. Let the caramel corn cool completely on the baking sheet before breaking it apart. Store in an airtight container at room temperature.
