Caramel Popcorn Bites
Ingredients
  • 3 (2.9 ounce) bags microwave popcorn, popped
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 2/3 cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/2 cup corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
Instructions
1
Fill a large container with popcorn kernels.
2
Combine brown sugar, sweetened condensed milk, corn syrup, melted butter, and a hint of vanilla essence in a saucepan over medium heat. Heat gently, stirring frequently, until the mixture reaches 234 degrees Fahrenheit (112 degrees Celsius), approximately 5 minutes. Pour the warm mixture over the popcorn; ensure it's evenly coated.
3
Take a small amount of the popcorn mixture and shape it into a spherical form by gathering and twisting a piece of plastic wrap around it. Place the popcorn ball on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper; repeat this process with the remaining mixture. Allow it to harden and set, around 5 minutes.
