CARAMEL POPCORN (NOT TOO SWEET OR STICKY)
I think this is a great caramel popcorn recipe, and I have tried quite a few! They were either too sticky or too sweet. This one is neither. The caramel dries well and doesn't stick to your fingers, and the sweetness is just right. I use spanish peanuts in this, but you could use other kinds of nuts, too. Here I was searching for the perfect caramel corn recipe, when all the while it was right in my recipe box! This is done in the microwave, and is very simple to make.

STICKY POPCORN
This wonderful candy popcorn is from Annette B. in my church cookbook. We prefer it made with cashews and Reese's pieces as they have the perfect fall colors. Use seasonally colored M&M's for other holidays. It doesn't get hard like some popcorn recipes and is best eaten the day it is made. This makes lots and is great to give away.

Steps:
- In a very large microwaveable bowl (mine holds 32 cups) combine popcorn, marshmallows, and nuts; set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium high heat, bring salt, butter, sugar, and corn syrup to a boil for 3 minutes; stirring constantly.
- Remove from heat and add vanilla (careful, it boils up a bit).
- Pour over popcorn mixture, stir till popcorn is well coated and marshmallows are melted (microwave if necessary in 30 second intervals) then add candy pieces.
- Eat as is or make into popcorn balls.
Tips:
- Choose the right popcorn kernels: Avoid using microwave popcorn, as it won't produce the same fluffy texture. Instead, opt for non-GMO popcorn kernels, which are available at most grocery stores.
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven: This will give the popcorn kernels plenty of space to pop and prevent them from overcrowding.
- Heat the oil over medium-high heat: This will help the popcorn kernels pop quickly and evenly.
- Add the popcorn kernels and sugar: Stir the kernels constantly to coat them in the sugar. This will help the popcorn caramelize and give it a sticky texture.
- Once the popcorn starts popping, reduce the heat to low: This will help prevent the popcorn from burning.
- Keep the pot or Dutch oven covered: This will help the popcorn pop evenly and prevent it from drying out.
- Shake the pot or Dutch oven occasionally: This will help distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
- Once the popping slows down, remove the pot or Dutch oven from the heat: Pour the popcorn into a large bowl and let it cool slightly before serving.
- Store the popcorn in an airtight container: This will help keep the popcorn fresh and sticky for up to a week.
Conclusion:
Making sticky popcorn at home is a fun and easy process that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
