  • Don't overcook the popcorn. Overcooked popcorn will be tough and chewy, so be careful not to leave it on the stovetop for too long.
  • Make sure the butter and sugar mixture is completely melted before adding the popcorn. This will help to coat the popcorn evenly and prevent it from clumping together.
  • Stir the popcorn constantly while it is cooking. This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Be careful not to burn the sugar mixture. If the sugar mixture starts to smoke, remove it from the heat immediately.
  • Let the Christmas Crack Corn cool completely before breaking it into pieces. This will help to prevent it from crumbling.
