Description

 

These chewy and crunchy caramel popcorn balls are a fun treat for parties, holidays, or just a sweet snack. Made with buttery homemade caramel, they’re easy to shape and full of flavor!

Ingredients

Units Scale

 

  • 10 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup unpopped kernels)
  • 1 cup unsalted butter
  • 2 cups light brown sugar, packed
  • 1/2 cup light corn syrup
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking soda

Instructions

 

  1. removing any unpopped kernels. Set aside.
  2. Make the Caramel: In a saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter. Stir in brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Let it boil for about 5 minutes without stirring.
  3. Add Vanilla & Baking Soda: Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and baking soda. The mixture will bubble up—this helps make the caramel light and airy.
  4. Coat the Popcorn: Carefully pour the hot caramel over the popcorn, using a spatula to stir until evenly coated.
  5. Shape the Balls: Let the mixture cool slightly. Grease your hands with butter or cooking spray, then shape the popcorn into balls about 2 to 3 inches in diameter.
  6. Set & Serve: Place the popcorn balls on a sheet of parchment paper to cool completely before serving.

Notes

  • Storage: Wrap each popcorn ball in plastic wrap and store at room temperature for up to 5 days.
  • Add-Ins: Try mixing in nuts, mini chocolate chips, or sprinkles before shaping for extra fun!

 

  • Sticky Hands? Greasing your hands with butter or spraying them with nonstick spray makes shaping easier.
