Number Of Ingredients 5

3 1/2 quarts popcorn
1 cup (5 1/2 ounces) salted peanuts
Basic Caramel
6 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
3/4 tablespoon salt

Steps:

  • Put popcorn (popped from 1/2 cup kernels) and peanuts in a large buttered bowl; set aside. Follow recipe for basic caramel, reducing sugar to 1 1/4 cups (do not reduce water). Remove caramel from heat, and use a clean wooden spoon to gently stir in butter and salt (caramel will bubble); stir until smooth. Pour caramel over popcorn, stirring to coat. Stir mixture every few minutes until cool. Store in an airtight container up to 1 week.

I'm allergic to peanuts, so I used almonds instead. The recipe turned out great!

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I think I'll try reducing the amount of sugar next time.

This recipe was a disaster! The caramel never set, and the peanuts burned. I'm not sure what I did wrong.

I love this recipe! It's so easy to make and the results are always delicious. I usually add a bit of extra salt to the caramel, and I also like to use a mix of different nuts.

This recipe is a keeper! I've made it several times now, and it's always a hit. It's the perfect combination of sweet, salty, and crunchy.

I'm a bit disappointed with this recipe. The caramel was too hard and the peanuts were too soft. I think I'll try a different recipe next time.

This recipe is a bit time-consuming, but it's worth the effort. The caramel is rich and gooey, and the peanuts add a nice crunch. I served it with vanilla ice cream, and it was amazing!

I'm not usually a fan of caramel, but this recipe changed my mind. The caramel was perfectly balanced, not too sweet or too sticky. And the peanuts added a nice salty crunch.

This recipe was a hit! The combination of caramel and peanuts was divine, and the crunch factor was on point. I'll definitely be making this again.
