Description
This caramel pretzel nut popcorn recipe combines the sweetness of caramel with the saltiness of pretzels, nuts, and popcorn mixed in a throw-away bag.
Ingredients
•
20 cups popped popcorn
•
8 cups broken salted pretzels
•
4 cups dry roasted peanuts
•
3 cups brown sugar
•
1 1/2 cups butter
•
3/4 cup light corn syrup
•
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
•
1 teaspoon salt
•
1 teaspoon baking soda
Directions
1
Place popcorn, pretzels, and peanuts in a large paper bag or very large bowl; set aside.
2
Combine brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until butter melted, brown sugar dissolved, and mixture comes to a full boil. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly.
3
Off heat, stir vanilla, salt, and baking soda into brown sugar mixture using a long spoon; the mixture will foam up when you add the soda. Immediately pour brown sugar mixture over popcorn mixture; shake until evenly coated.
