Gingerbread Caramel Corn Recipe


Gingerbread Caramel Corn Recipe
This was my first attempt at making anything other than butter or microwaved popcorn. YUM! I didn't keep the URL of the website I found this on, but credit is given to Linda Larsen, Your Guide to Busy Cooks. It might have been About.com.

Ingredients
  • 15 cups popped corn
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 cup butter
  • 2 cups packed brown sugar
  • 1/4 cup corn syrup
  • 1/4 cup light molasses (I'm sure I used dark)
  • 1 Tbsp ground ginger
  • 1 tsp cinnamon
  • 1/2 tsp baking soda

Directions
  1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Place popcorn into two 13x9" pans.
  2. Mix together salt, butter, brown sugar, corn syrup, molasses, ginger, and cinnamon in a heavy, large saucepan. Heat over medium heat until mixture comes to a boil, stirring frequently. Boil for 5 minutes.
  3. Remove pan from heat and mix in baking soda. Mixture WILL foam up - this is why you need a large pan!
  4. Pour this foamy mixture over the popped corn in the prepared pans and mix thoroughly. Bake both pans at 250 degrees for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes, until corn is glazed and crisp.
  5. Cool completely, then store in airtight containers.
