CC’s Caramel Corn

Pop popcorn kernels in an air popcorn machine according to manufactures directions.

Pour sugar into a skillet with a heavy bottom and let melt. Don’t stir the sugar as it melts or it will crystallize. Swirl the pan around to ensure even caramelization. When it has completely melted and a deep golden colour, whisk in butter and continue to whisk until it is incorporated. Add cream, carefully as the caramel will bubble up and whisk until smooth. Remove from heat and let cool.
Put the popcorn into a large bowl, drizzle with the caramel and toss to evenly coat. Season with sea salt. Makes about 8 cups of caramel corn.
