A couple of days ago, I was randomly craving caramel corn.  If you have never had homemade caramel corn but only the boxed/bagged version, this is something you may want to try.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp maple syrup

1 Tbsp packed light brown sugar

1 bag light popcorn, popped

Preheat the oven to 300 degrees Fahrenheit.  After popping the microwave popcorn, allow the popcorn to cool for about 5-10 minutes. After the popcorn has cooled, transfer the popcorn into a large freezer bag (if you don’t allow the popcorn to cool, it will melt the bag).  Drizzle the maple syrup and dust the brown sugar over the popcorn, and then seal the bag.  Shake the bag until all of the syrup and sugar is evenly distributed over the popcorn. Pour the popcorn evenly onto a large sheet pan, and bake at 300 degrees for 2-4 minutes, being careful not to burn the popcorn.  Using a spatula, immediately scrape the popcorn into a large mixing bowl so that it does not become stuck to the pan.  Toss the popcorn in the bowl and serve immediately.  Serves 2-3.
