Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Place popcorn and nuts in a large bowl. Melt butter in a heavy-bottomed saucepan over medium heat. Stir in corn syrup, sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon salt, and cook until sugar dissolves, stirring once or twice. Raise heat to high, and bring to a boil (do not stir). Boil, without stirring, until a candy thermometer registers 248 degrees, 2 to 4 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir in baking soda.
- Pour caramel over popcorn mixture, stirring to coat thoroughly. Transfer to 2 rimmed baking sheets, spreading in a single layer. Bake 45 minutes, stirring twice. Test doneness by removing a few pieces of popcorn from oven; if they crisp within 1 minute, popcorn is ready. Remove from oven, and immediately sprinkle with remaining salt. Let cool completely.
- Place chocolate in a heatproof bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir until melted and completely smooth. Fill a small resealable plastic bag with chocolate, and snip a tiny hole in 1 corner. Drizzle chocolate over caramel corn. Refrigerate until chocolate is set, about 10 minutes, before breaking up.

Tips:
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven to make the caramel corn. This will give the corn plenty of room to pop and coat evenly in the caramel.
- Be careful not to overcook the caramel. It should be a light golden brown color, not dark brown.
- If you don't have a candy thermometer, you can test the caramel by dropping a small amount into a glass of cold water. If the caramel hardens and forms a ball, it is ready.
- Add the cashews and white chocolate chips to the caramel corn while it is still warm. This will help them to adhere to the corn.
- Let the caramel corn cool completely before storing it. This will help to prevent it from becoming sticky.
Conclusion:
White chocolate caramel corn with cashews is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and salty treat that is sure to be a hit with family and friends.
