Tips:
- To make sure your popcorn cake is crispy, use fresh popcorn and make sure it's completely cooled before adding it to the batter.
- For a fun twist, try using different flavors of popcorn, such as caramel or kettle corn.
- If you don't have a springform pan, you can use a regular 9x13 inch baking pan. Just be sure to grease and flour the pan before adding the batter.
- To make sure your cake is cooked through, insert a toothpick into the center. If it comes out clean, the cake is done.
- Let the cake cool completely before frosting it. This will help the frosting set properly.
