Ingredients

  • 9 cups Popped Popcorn approximately 3 bags
  • 1 cup Butter
  • 1/2 cup Light Corn Syrup
  • 2 cups Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 teaspoon Baking soda
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 4 Full Size Snickers Bars
  • 4 oz Semi-Sweet Chocolate

Instructions

  • Preheat the oven to 250 degrees F (95 degrees C). Place popped popcorn in a very large bowl.
  • Melt the butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Then stir in the brown sugar, corn syrup and salt. Bring this mixture to a boil, stirring constantly. Then boil without stirring for approximately 4 minutes. Remove from the heat and then stir in the baking soda and vanilla extract.
  • Pour the caramel sauce over the popcorn and stir it to coat all the popcorn with the caramel sauce.
  • Place the popcorn in a roasting pan, two large shallow baking dishes or pans and bake in a preheated oven, for approximately 30 minutes (stirring halfway through).
  • Chop up the snickers bars.  Stir the snicker pieces into the caramel popcorn and cook for 5 more minutes for the snicker pieces to soften.  
  • Then remove the popcorn from the oven and place on a baking sheet to cool. While the popcorn is cooling, melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips. 
  • Place the chocolate in a microwave safe bowl.  Heat in 30 second intervals, stirring after each interval until melted.  Use a fork to drizzle the chocolate over the popcorn.  Let the popcorn sit for 10-15 minutes for the chocolate to set. 
  • Then the popcorn is ready to break apart into pieces and enjoy! 

Notes

Store the leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week.
