Sweet, Crunch and Lightly salted Caramel Popcorn…WARNING!!! This stuff is addicting!!!
The weather is changing and my favorite season is approaching! I LOVE fall. Everything from the crisp air, the rain ( I get lots of it since I live in the NorthWest) the colorful leaves, and the FOOD!! One of my favorite things to munch on during the fall is Caramel Popcorn. I know it sounds simple, and a lot of people eat it year round, but during the fall, is when I make my very own homemade caramel popcorn.
I love my homemade caramel popcorn more than any store bought or gourmet brand. It’s fresh, crunchy, and it’s easy to make.
I love making several batches of this popcorn for holidays parties, and it is always gone within minutes! Give this recipe a try, and tell me what you think!!!

I’m eating a bowl of this right this moment. If I wasn’t diabetic before, I definitely am now lol
LOL!!!
Another Winner! Don’t forget to use a greased sheet of foil like I had done ^.^ To get the sticky off dish the hack is to reheat it so it’ s soft again and spoon it out right away.
This was popular at the family christmas party picky eaters were chowing down on it 😀
Thanks for trying it out!
