My husband’s favorite Christmas treat is Caramel Popcorn. It has been a family tradition going back to when we were dating that I would make him and his father their own turkey pan full of Caramel Popcorn. I got this recipe from my mother who got it from a school class cookbook. It is the best Caramel Popcorn recipe. It is also easy to make.
3 gallons of air-popped, popcorn
1 stick of Butter
1 cup Karo syrup
2 1/3 cups Brown Sugar
1 (14 oz) can Sweeten and Condensed Milk
1 can mixed and salted Nuts
Aluminum Turkey pan
Pop the popcorn into a bowl. Sort out the unpopped kernels and place only the popped corn into the turkey pan.
In a pot on the stove place the sugar, Karo syrup, and butter. Heat and stir until butter is melted. Add the sweeten and condensed milk and stir. Bring to a boil while stirring and bring to soft ball stage.
Pour over popcorn and stir to coat. Add nuts while stirring gently. When coated allow to cool and enjoy.
