Did you know that today is National Popcorn Day? Me neither until just a little while ago. :) But what a great day... Popcorn is one of my very favorite snacks. Of course I had to go pop some, but no plain stuff for me today:
YUMMY!!!
This is a no-bake caramel popcorn recipe that we've made for years. I thought I would share it with you "in honor of the day!" (Of course, each day is a reason to celebrate, right? Such a precious gift from God!) Actually, I think I am going to mark this day on my calendar, after all the excitement of Christmas, it's nice to have something else fun for January.
No-Bake Caramel Popcorn
Melt: 1 stick butter or margerine
1 cup brown sugar
Add: 1 cup corn syrup
Bring mixture to a boil and boil one minute.
Remove from heat and add 1/4 teaspoon baking soda.
Stir into popped popcorn.
(I did about 3/4 cup unpopped popcorn. I use an air popper- buy one, you won't regret it. It has pretty much spoiled me for microwave popcorn, and it's healthier too... depending on how MUCH butter you add... ahem.)
Happy Eating!!
My, my. We learn something new every day :) The recipe looks yummy!!
