When I was a kid, my mom made this recipe often. I've adapted it to make it more chewy and gooey than her crunchy, nut-loaded version. I get requests to make this for every event that I host, and have never had a single leftover! -Shannon Dobos, Calgary, Alberta

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my caramel popcorn turned out really hard. I think I might have cooked the caramel for too long.

This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend reducing the amount of sugar in the caramel.

I'm not a big fan of caramel popcorn, but this recipe changed my mind. The caramel is so light and airy, and it doesn't overpower the popcorn.

The popcorn was a little too chewy for my taste. I think I would have liked it better if it was a little crispier.

This recipe was a disaster! The caramel didn't turn out right and the popcorn was burnt. I would not recommend this recipe.
