Puffed Caramel Corn

Puffed Caramel Corn

Ingredients

  • 1 (8 ounce) bag corn puffs (such as O-Ke-Doke)

  • 1 cup salted peanuts (Optional)

  • 1 cup butter

  • 1 cup packed brown sugar

  • ½ cup light corn syrup

  • 1 teaspoon baking soda

Preparation

Step 1


Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Combine corn puffs and peanuts in a large roasting pan.


Step 2


Bring butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup to a boil in a heavy 2-quart saucepan. Cook and stir for 2 minutes.


Step 3


Remove from heat; stir in baking soda until mixture foams up.


Step 4


Pour over corn puff mixture and toss well using rubber spatulas. Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 to 15 minutes, until a cooled piece of corn is crunchy, about 45 minutes.


Step 5


Spread on waxed paper to cool. Break apart and store in an airtight container.
