How to Make Almond Toffee Popcorn

  1. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup granulated sugar, 1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter, 1/2 cup light corn syrup, 1/4 cup water, and 1 cup slivered almonds.
  2. Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture reaches 280°F (138°C) on a candy thermometer. This will take about 10-15 minutes. Be careful not to burn the mixture.
  3. Remove from heat and immediately stir in 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
  4. Pour the hot toffee mixture evenly over 6 cups of popped popcorn in a large bowl. Stir gently but thoroughly to coat all the popcorn.
  5. Spread the toffee popcorn in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and harden completely. Break into pieces once cooled.
