Alas, I have finally decided what treat to gift this year (it’s about time, I seriously spent way too much time stressing about what to give). Here it is, Fancy Caramel Popcorn. This popcorn is my favorite caramel popcorn and my new favorite holiday treat! I think I ate about 10 cups of it in one sitting, so be warned, it’s addictive. And you wouldn’t believe the caramel is made in the microwave, so it’s very simple to make. Instead of multiple hours of baking complicated recipes, this one is fast and easy. You’ve got to love that! I combined the ideas of many recipes to create just what I was looking for. This is the perfect last-minute treat to give to family, friends, or neighbors. It’s also the perfect crowd-pleasing snack for parties (it’s likely you won’t see one piece of this delicious caramel-covered popcorn left in the bowl at the end of the party).
I love the combination of flavors in this popcorn. You get salted crunchy pretzels, lightly salted nuts, and chewy popcorn covered in sweet, silky, not too gooey caramel and it’s finished off with a generous drizzling of decadent melted milk chocolate and white chocolate. There really is every delicious flavor profile! Try this popcorn out and I believe it’s likely to become one of your new favorite holiday treats as well. Have a wonderful Christmas everyone! I hope one of my recipes makes it to your holiday table, bringing your family and friends together. Merry Christmas!
