This recipe I love to make around Thanksgiving to drink or give as presents at Christmastime. The longer you wait the better it is, try and wait 4 weeks. I got this recipe from one of my own concoctions from trying several different recipes.

Categories     Dessert

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 7

8 cups popped corn
Large handful of cashews or other nut
1 cup granulated sugar
½ cup Kahlua
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
3 tablespoons butter
Salt (optional)

Steps:

  • Put the popped popcorn and nuts in a greased roasting pan and set it in a 250 degree oven to warm. Warm popcorn is easier to coat.
  • In a large saucepan, heat the sugar, Kahlua and vinegar until very hot. Add the butter and bring to a boil, stirring often. Insert a candy thermometer and continue boiling, stirring often (I stopped a couple of times, but stirred here and there to prevent burning) and bring the mixture to 300 degrees F - hard crack stage. Immediately remove from heat.
  • Pour over the warm popcorn and nuts and stir to coat. At this point it will be very chewy. Let it cool completely. If you cooked it to hard crack, it will crisp when it is completely cool.
  • Eat as is or douse with more liqueur and eat immediately.

Tips:

  • Choose the right popcorn kernels. Fresh popcorn kernels will pop better and give you a more flavorful snack.
  • Preheat your pot or air popper before adding the kernels. This will help to prevent the kernels from burning.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot or air popper. If you add too many kernels, they won't have enough room to pop properly.
  • Keep the pot or air popper moving while the kernels are popping. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Don't open the pot or air popper until the popping stops. If you open it too soon, the unpopped kernels will fly out and make a mess.
  • Once the popcorn is finished popping, remove it from the pot or air popper and let it cool for a few minutes before adding any toppings.
  • Store leftover popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 2 days.

Conclusion:

Kahlua popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that's perfect for parties, movie nights, or anytime you're craving something sweet and salty. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a flavorful snack that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a new snack to try, give Kahlua popcorn a try. You won't be disappointed!
