Wanna make the most delicious popcorn ever? Learn How to Make this Butterbeer Popcorn recipe and you will be golden!

Step 1: Organization is the key to success

To keep this as neat and simple as possible, you’ll need one large bowl and two small bowls. In the large one put the popcorn and set aside.

In the small bowl sift nutmeg and baking soda, so you’ll get a smooth mixture. In another small bowl add almond extract, vanilla extract, rum extract, and butter extract.

Step 2: It’s time to do some cooking

Cook sugar, water, molasses, salt, and the butter in a medium sized saucepan and stir occasionally. Cook this mixture over medium heat, and wait until the temperature is 30F.

Then stir in the extracts (those you mixed in the first step) and after that add the nutmeg and baking soda mixture. Just pay attention to stir these combinations very carefully.

Step 3: Do you love toffee?

Now, it’s time to make things sweeter. Pour the caramel over the popcorn and then toss the popcorn around so the caramel can add that wonderful sweetness to the popcorn.

Step 4: One step away from your new favorite treat!

Now you’ll need a large baking sheet, so you can spread the popcorn. After the popcorn is cooled, break it apart.

Step 5: What are you waiting for?

Well, don’t just stare at the popcorn but serve and enjoy its wonderful sweet taste.

If you want to make your popcorn even more tasteful, just bake it in the oven. How to do that? Well, fast and easy. Just leave the butterbeer popcorn on the baking sheet and set the temperature on 200F.

Bake the popcorn around 30 minutes, and don’t forget to toss it every 8 minutes.

The best part about this recipe is that you can store the popcorn in an airtight container (at room temperature).

That way, your popcorn is ready whenever you want to spend a lovely evening watching movies with your dearest ones.
