Description:
Yummy popcorn, make sure there are lots of people around to help you eat it, otherwise you'll get fat!
Ingredients:
2 bags of NATURAL microwave popcorn OR two batches of air popped popcorn. Don't add any butter or salt!
1 cup pure maple syrup
1 cup real butter
Directions:
1. Pop the popcorn first, and try to scoop out any left over kernels that didn't pop.
2. Measure butter and syrup into a medium sized sauce pan, make sure it's big enough to contain at least double what you put in, it expands quite a bit while your cooking
3. Stirring continuously, bring to a gently boil over medium heat. Seriously, don't stop stirring!
4. The caramel is ready when it makes soft balls, about 280 degrees if you have a candy thermometer.
5. drizzle half of the sauce over half of the popcorn, add the rest of the popcorn and then the rest of the sauce. Mix well with a wooden spoon. If you want less caramel, make more popcorn, if you want more caramel, make less popcorn
6. Eat, enjoy, and post your opinion on the website!
