Spray a large rimmed baking sheet with non-stick spray set aside. One-half cup of raw popcorn kernels will yield about 4 quarts (16 cups) of popped popcorn, so you can see as with most packaged products, it is much more economical to use raw kernels. Most standard size microwave popcorn brands will yield somewhere between 3-1/2 to 5 cups of popcorn, so you would need somewhere around 4 bags. If you prefer to skip that step, you can certainly substitute microwave popcorn. Oh you didn't know about that? Me either, well, not until after the fact anyway, but that's a whole 'nother post.
Besides, there was that whole microwave popcorn health scare thing. To me, it just tastes better, plus I like adding in my own real, pure butter right into the cooking process too. I also know that some people make this using bags of microwave popcorn, but I have kinda gotten into the habit of popping corn fresh on the stove top and really enjoy the whole process. Some recipes add baking soda and vanilla, but I don't know why, and I really don't find the recipe needs either. Okay, so it's true there's a little work behind this snack, and yes, it makes a mess that requires you soak a few pots too, but it is so very worth it. I can tell you one thing that we agree on about it. But, that's just me, because The Cajun just calls this Caramel Corn. Butter Toffee popcorn, is more brown sugar buttery, and lighter in color than Caramel Corn to me. What sets Butter Toffee apart from Caramel Corn? I don't really know! I know a lot of people simply call this Caramel Corn, but to me Caramel Corn has a much deeper, richer molasses flavor and is darker in color.
#CRUNCH N MUNCH WITH ALMONDS CRACKER#
Homemade Crunch and Munch Way more than Cracker Jack, way more than dark Caramel Corn, Butter Toffee Popcorn - or more specifically Crunch and Munch - has always been my love. A wonderful popcorn treat that is delicious made fresh at home - popcorn tossed in a buttery caramel toffee coating with your favorite nuts, what is not to love about that?!
