@ Bree- If you keep it in an airtight container, you should get about a week out of it. I’ve never had a problem with it getting sticky, just stale.

so i made ur caramel corn tonight….awesome! one question for you though….how long will it hold? we got a ton of rain tonight and i’m afraid it’ll be all sticky when i go back in tomorrow. i need it to hold about 3-4 days without getting tacky. thanks for the great recipe! we added pumpkin seeds and cinnamon to ours and it turned out really yummy. made me sick because i ate so much!

@Bree- I use a pretty simple recipe, which works great for popcorn and any kind of nut:
1 1/4 Cups brown sugar
3/4 Cup butter
1/3 Cup honey (or corn syrup)
pinch of salt
1 1/2 bags of microwave popcorn.
1. Pop the popcorn and set aside. You can eat half a bag while you cook.
2.Combine first 4 ingredients and bring to a boil.
3.Toss nuts in syrup and spread on silpat
4.Bake in a low (200 F) for at least 2 hours, until crunchy. Stir every 30 minutes during baking.

P.S. how do you make your caramel corn??? i make mine like a peanut brittle, with baking soda. then toss with popcorn. comes out really crunchy, but also comes out in big chunks that you have to break up. yours looks good!

@Bree- sadly, it’s still going nowhere. We did fifty or so covers tonight and sold zero…WTF? Corn Ice cream is good. Let’s put bacon in that!!

we also make a sweet corn ice cream and it’s awesome! people are a little freaked out by it. We used to pair it with peaches. I would love to try ur float…it looks great and probably tastes even better!

@Roberto N.- Thanks for reading! Yeah, Falkner has some good flavor combos; I bet she runs into a lot of new flavor haters, too.

Liz Falkner featured a Cherries and Corn dessert on her book… Yours sounds like a very fn good idea. But people someties are like that…
