How To Make caramel corn with pecans

  • Step 1
    In a heavy sauce pan (allowing for extra space at the top for foam to rise), combine the sugar, butter, corn syrup and salt.
  • Step 2
    Bring the mixture to a boil and boil for 5 minutes.
  • Step 3
    Remove from the heat and stir in vanilla and baking soda.
  • Step 4
    Foam will instantly form when the baking soda is added.
  • Step 5
    Immediately pour the mixture over freshly popped corn and peanuts in a large container. Best when microwave butter popcorn is used.
  • Step 6
    Mix well and quickly.
  • Step 7
    Pour onto two cookie sheets lined with foil.
  • Step 8
    Bake in preheated oven at 200 for 1 hour 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes.
  • Step 9
    Store in a tightly sealed container as air will make the corn soggy.
