Marshmallow Caramel Corn is a delicious, easy-to-make snack that combines sweet caramel and crunchy popcorn. Perfect for movie nights, parties, or anytime you need a treat, this gooey and crispy dessert will leave everyone craving more.

Ingredients

12 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup unpopped kernels)

1/2 cup unsalted butter

1 cup packed brown sugar

2 tablespoons light corn syrup

1 package (10 oz) large marshmallows (approximately 35 marshmallows)

1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

  • Pop the Popcorn: Pop the popcorn using your preferred method (air popper, stovetop, or microwave). Place the popped popcorn in a large, oven-safe bowl or on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper.

  • Make the Caramel: In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Add brown sugar and corn syrup, stirring until the mixture is smooth and begins to bubble. Let it simmer for 2-3 minutes.

  • Add Marshmallows: Stir in the marshmallows and continue stirring until completely melted and smooth.

  • Coat the Popcorn: Pour the caramel-marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and gently toss to coat all the popcorn.

  • Bake for Extra Crunch: Preheat the oven to 250°F (120°C). Spread the coated popcorn on a baking sheet. Bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.

  • Cool and Serve: Let the popcorn cool completely. Once cooled, break it into clusters and enjoy!

Notes

  • Add-ins: You can add mini chocolate chips, crushed nuts, or pretzels for variety.

  • Less Sweet: If you prefer a less sweet snack, add a pinch of sea salt to balance the flavor.

  • Vegan Option: Substitute with dairy-free butter and marshmallows for a vegan-friendly treat.
