Puffed Caramel Corn
Puffed corn can be found in the potato chip aisle of your grocery store and is used in this recipe to make great caramel corn without hulls or unpopped kernels. Warning: you need to make a double batch of this because it doesn't last long, at least not in my house. Very addicting. Love it!
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

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