For an even more decadent treat, consider using brown butter instead of regular butter. The nutty notes will add another layer of complexity. Be careful not to overcook the sugar mixture, as it can burn easily. A light amber color is what you're looking for. Work quickly when coating the popcorn, as the sugar mixture will harden as it cools. Store leftover Sweetened Popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain its crunchiness.

Sep 18, 2024My popcorn turned out a little sticky. I think I might have overcooked the syrup. Next time, I'll watch it more carefully and take it off the heat as soon as it turns golden.
