Caramel Popcorn

This is my sister in law's caramel popcorn recipe and we LOVE it. I'm finally posting it here so we don't have to text them every time we want to make it. I don't know why we can't remember it because the recipe is really very simple and it makes yummy ooey gooey caramel popcorn. And it is made in the microwave! Super easy.

1/2 cup butter
1/2 cup karo syrup
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup sweetened condensed milk

1 tsp baking soda

1/2 cup popcorn kernels

Pop the popcorn kernels in an air popper or whirly pop. Be sure and remove any old maids.

Combine the first five ingredients in a microwave safe bowl. Cook it in the microwave for five minutes, stirring it all together half way through at 2 1/2 minutes. After it has cooked for five minutes remove it and add the baking soda (it will get nice and bubbley).

Pour the microwave caramel over the popcorn and carefully stir it all together. All done. Then try not to eat the whole thing yourself.

Snowman doughnuts

Powdered doughnuts
Frosting (both white and chocolate; I put mine in sandwich bags with one corner snipped so I could have better control for decorating)
Candy corn

Each powdered doughnuts gets a little white frosting in its center to hold the candy corn nose in place (I'll definitely use a lot less next time.  It really needs just a little but I was in a rush.)

Then use the chocolate frosting to make eyes and the mouth.  Super easy for a classroom party or special breakfast.
