How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn Recipe

By Stacey Freeman Leave a Comment

This is a sponsored conversation written by me and on behalf of Dr Pepper®. All the opinions and texts are mine.How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn RecipeWhat do you get when you mix Dr Pepper and popcorn? A ridiculously delicious Dr Pepper caramel corn recipe. To be honest with you, I had my doubts about this recipe. However, I’m so glad I tried it because it is such a fun and easy way to make caramel corn.How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn RecipeThis recipe is super simple to make. All you need are four ingredients, an oven, and a microwave. I purchased all of my ingredients at Stop and Shop near my new home outside of Boston. The soda was in the soda/water aisle, the marshmallows and the sugar were in the baking aisle and the popcorn was in the snack aisle.How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn RecipeTo start, I combined mini marshmallows, Dr Pepper, and brown sugar. Then, I melted that all together in the microwave until I got a thick syrup, and then I coated the popcorn. Next, I baked it for 20(ish) minutes and poof, yummy Dr Pepper caramel corn.How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn RecipeI adapted this recipe from Flippin Delicious. I used about half of the syrup/caramel and then baked the popcorn for about 20 minutes to get the sugars to caramelize and crisp up.How to Make This Super Easy Dr Pepper Caramel Corn RecipeIt took some trial and error but I think the recipe I created definitely takes on a caramel corn persona. After it baked, it was super crunchy and sweet, exactly what you want in a caramel corn. Just make sure your oven is pre-heated and the pan is prepared so you can get it in there right away.

This is definitely going to be a quick go-to treat for this year’s football season. Be sure to visit Visit Tailgating with Dr Pepper for more tailgating inspiration!

Dr Pepper Caramel Corn Recipe

Ingredients:

2 cups mini marshmallows
¾ cup Dr Pepper
5 tablespoons brown sugar
8 cups popped popcorn

Directions:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350. Prepare a baking tray with parchment paper.In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the mini marshmallows, Dr Pepper, and sugar.
  2. Microwave on high for 7-8 minutes, stirring every two minutes. The coating is finished when it is thick and a bit gooey. It should be thick, the consistency of thick syrup or caramel.
  3. Slowly pour the coating over your popped popcorn, 1/3 at a time, and stir to coat. I only used about half the syrup.
  4. Immediately spread the caramel covered popcorn onto the parchment-lined pan and put it into the oven. Try to spread the kernels as far apart as possible so they aren’t too clumpy.
  5. Next, bake for 20 – 25 minutes, until the popcorn takes on a rich brown color. When you remove from the oven, it might still feel soggy but will harden up quickly.
  6. Break apart, as needed, and serve warm or at room temperature.

Please don’t touch my kids’ hair. Please tell Please don’t touch my kids’ hair. Please tell your kids not to touch their hair. I can’t believe I have to say this or explain why this is racist. But I do.

I’m sure this seems like a random statement to most people. It might not seem like a big deal to you. But it’s not random and it is a big deal. It’s a common experience for Black people, and it’s not ok. 

Given everything going on right now, it’s hard for me to talk about a right to our personal space and bodies. That’s part of it. But it’s also about making my kids feel like an other.

New on poshinprogress.com, I’m sharing the story of my shock and surprise when my daughter told me she didn’t feel comfortable wearing her hair down anymore because so many of her classmates were touching her hair. And then being dumbfounded to find out my son has had a similar experience. I also share information on racial micro aggressions and history of Black people’s hair. If this story is surprising or confusing to you, please read more about why it’s never ok to touch Black people’s hair.

I was going to post about summer fashion. I was go I was going to post about summer fashion. I was going to talk about my kids’ beach camp next week. 

But this can’t go unsaid. I am so angry right now. I am terrified for my daughter and women in the U.S.

We just lost a fundamental human right. We just lost control of our bodies. 

This is not about saving the lives of unborn children. Because if it was, then all guns would be banned - because guns are the leading cause of childhood death in the U.S. 

This decision is about control. About controlling women. 

If you have the ability to choose whether to own a gun, why can’t I choose the healthcare decisions that are right for me? This is no longer a democracy. This decision has so much greater impact than people even realize. 

If you’re looking for resources, I’m linking a comprehensive one in my stories. This is not a place for debate, this is a place to protect women and our rights to control our bodies. We must stand together.
