baked caramel corn
(3 ratings)
You will never buy store bought caramel corn again! So yummy, very addictive. I made this for my nephews birthday last year and everyone raved over it! I use a hot air popcorn machine to pop the corn, but you can use natural microwave popcorn (no butter added)too. Enjoy!
