Equipment

Ingredients

  • 6 ounces corn pops 1 bag, (not the cereal- these are the kind that you would find on the potato chip/popcorn aisle)
  • ½ cup butter
  • ½ cup light corn syrup
  • 1 cup brown sugar
  • 1 teaspoon baking soda
  • ½ cup white sugar
  • 2 teaspoons cinnamon

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees.
  • Pour corn pops into two 9×13 pans.
  • In a saucepan over medium high heat, mix together butter, corn syrup, and brown sugar. Cook for two minutes or until it starts to bubble around the edges.
  • Remove saucepan from heat.
  • Stir in baking soda (this helps coat the corn pops) and whisk until it?s completely mixed.
  • Pour caramel mixture evenly over the corn pops and gently stir in the pan until all the pops are evenly coated.
  • In a separate bowl, mix together sugar and cinnamon. Sprinkle over coated corn pops and mix until evenly coated.
  • Place pans in oven and cook for 45 minutes, stirring every 10-15 minutes.
  • Remove the pans from the oven and spread the pops on wax paper. Break into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

If you want to make the mixture a little sweeter, try adding:
  • Your favorite candy bar pieces
  • Cookie pieces (I love the Vanilla Oreo’s with this caramel corn mixture)
  • Teddy Grahams
  • Marshmallows
  • White chocolate chips
