I live in popcorn country, and there's even a town nearby that has a "Popcorn Days" celebration. This is a good snack and also good for entertaining during the holidays, especially because it can be made ahead of time.

If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can also use the cold water test to check the caramel.

I would recommend using a candy thermometer to make sure the caramel reaches the right temperature.

I've tried several caramel popcorn recipes before, but this one is by far the best. The caramel is perfectly gooey and the popcorn is nice and crispy.
