Caramel Puff Corn

This is an Ellerman Ranch favorite. Scott and the girls love it and its so easy to make. This is a batch I made a while back. However, the plan is to make more in the next few weeks to bring into work for my library ladies. I am not sure if I have met a person yet who doesn't like caramel puff corn.

  Make sure before you start this recipe that you have two roaster pans. Or at least one large one. It makes it so much easier when it comes to stirring!

• 1 8oz bag of puffcorn(this stuff is also delicious on it’s own, but that’s beside the point)
• 1/2 lb (2 sticks) butter
• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup light corn syrup
• 1 tsp baking soda

- Preheat oven to 250 degrees

- Place puff-corn curls in large roaster pan

- Cook butter, corn syrup and brown sugar on the stove on low heat for two minutes, it will turn a brown caramel color

- Add baking soda, this will cause the sauce to foam

- Pour sauce over curls, stir to evenly cover all curls

-Bake for 45 minutes stirring every 10-15 minutes

- After 45 minutes, take out of the oven and pour curls on wax or parchment paper and break apart curls

YUM!
