Caramel Corn Puffs 1

 

 

 

Ingredients
 Puff corn  1 bag (8 ounce) or 1/2 pound
 Unsalted Butter  2 sticks (or 1 cup)
 Brown Sugar  1 cup
 Honey or Light Corn Syrup  1/2 cup
 Baking Soda  1 teaspoon

 

Method:

Preheat oven to 250F. Place the puff corn into a large baking pan and set aside.  I’ve used Bettermade brand corn pops, its made in Michigan!

In a big deep sauce pan, bring the butter, brown sugar and corn syrup to a boil. Make sure your sauce pan is deep enough as the batter may over flow when you add baking soda.

When the butter mixture starts to boil, add the baking soda.

This will cause the caramel mixture to foam up. Stir well and remove from heat.

Notes:

You can store this in airtight containers on the counter for a week, without losing any quality of taste. Maybe a little longer, but only if there’s something left!

      Hi Deepa, Thanks for visiting my space, you actually can see this in the Chips aisle in any supermarket. I’m from Michigan and I personally like Bettermade products. Wal-mart has this one and few other brands too. Thanks again!
