Friends of mine know I have a large popcorn obsession. I simply love popcorn, any flavor. No matter the time of day, I can munch on my favorite snack. Caramel corn is classic, and this one is an even easier, simplified recipe. A quick caramel, a little baking soda, and you’re ready to eat…and eat and eat! This is so easy and so delicious that you’ll be making it all fall long.
