Time 1h10m

Yield 7 quarts

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups brown sugar
1 cup butter
1/2 cup corn syrup
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon vanilla
7 quarts popped corn
1 cup Hershey's semi-sweet chocolate chips
12 large marshmallows, cut in quarters
2 tablespoons butter
2 tablespoons warm water
1 cup peanuts (optional)

Steps:

  • Prepare Caramel Corn:.
  • Combine brown sugar, butter, syrup and salt in a saucepan.
  • Boil 5 minutes.
  • Remove from heat and add the baking soda and vanilla.
  • Stir well and then pour over popped corn in a large roaster.
  • If you have to put into two large tinfoil buttered roasters, it will be easier to stir in two pans.
  • Bake in oven at 250 degrees for one hour, stirring every 15 minutes.
  • Pour onto waxed paper and cool.
  • Break up into pieces.
  • Chocolate Coating:.
  • Melt chips, marshmallows, butter and water for about four minutes in the microwave, stirring until smooth.
  • You can do this on the stove top too, just melt until very smooth.
  • Place the cooled caramel corn and peanuts, if using, in a large roasting pan or on a large cookie sheet, single layer, and drizzle chocolate over lightly. Using a baggy with the corner snipped off, will help drizzling the coating over top.
