Marshmallow Caramel Popcorn is a delightful treat that combines the crunch of popcorn with a sweet, gooey caramel-marshmallow coating. It’s perfect for movie nights, parties, or whenever you’re craving something sweet and satisfying.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 12 cups popped popcorn (about ½ cup unpopped kernels)
  • ½ cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup packed brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons light corn syrup
  • 1 package (10 oz) large marshmallows (approximately 35 marshmallows)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Prepare the Popcorn:
    • Pop the popcorn using your preferred method (air popper, stovetop, or microwave).
    • Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl, ensuring you remove any unpopped kernels.
  • Make the Caramel-Marshmallow Mixture:
    • In a large saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
    • Add the brown sugar and corn syrup, stirring until the mixture is well combined and the sugar has dissolved.
    • Reduce the heat to medium-low and add the marshmallows.
    • Stir continuously until the marshmallows are completely melted and the mixture is smooth.
    • Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
  • Combine Popcorn and Caramel Mixture:
    • Pour the caramel-marshmallow mixture over the popcorn.
    • Gently stir until all the popcorn is evenly coated.
  • Set the Popcorn:
    • Spread the coated popcorn onto a large, foil-lined baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray.
    • Allow it to cool and set for about 10–15 minutes.
  • Serve:
    • Once set, break the popcorn into clusters and serve.
    • Store any leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness.

Notes

  • Variations: For added flavor and texture, consider mixing in nuts, pretzels, or drizzling melted chocolate over the coated popcorn before it sets.
  • Storage: Store the popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
  • Yield: This recipe makes approximately 8 servings.
