Ingredients
-
125g
Anchor Butter (or 1/2 cup oil if you prefer)
-
1 1/4 cups
packed brown sugar
-
2 tablespoons
liquid glucose
-
1 teaspoon
vanilla extract
-
1/2 teaspoon
baking soda
-
6 cups
popcorn (not flavoured)
-
3/4 cup
roasted salted peanuts
-
1/2 cup
roasted salted cashew nuts
-
150g
milk chocolate
Method
Preheat the oven to 125 C (250 F)
Place the butter, sugar and liquid glucose in a saucepan and bring to the boil over a moderate heat, stirring to dissolve the sugar. Allow to continue to boil over a gentle heat for about 6 minutes, taking care not to let it burn.
While the caramel is cooking, Arrange the popcorn and nuts in a baking paper lined roasting dish, making sure that the popcorn is in a single layer (if possible). Remove the caramel from the heat, stir through the vanilla and baking soda and then pour evenly over the popcorn and nuts. Bake for 40 minutes, stirring regularly so as not to burn. Allow to cool and then break into pieces.
Gently melt the chocolate in a bowl over a saucepan of simmering water. Drizzle the chocolate over the caramel corn and then set aside until set.
Store in an airtight container.
