10 Minute Caramel Popcorn

caramel popcorn

Low on time, but in need of a new idea for a snack? Try this quick snack idea for the kids! Caramel popcorn is surprisingly easy to make and only requires four ingredients. It is always fun to make something new, especially when the “every day” snacks can get boring. It takes about 10 minutes to make and one bag of popcorn can last quite a while. The recipe includes:

2 cups of sugar
1/3 cup of melted butter
1 tsp of baking soda
1 bag of popcorn

2 cups of sugar will cover all of the popcorn with a thicker coating, if you want to make the coating thinner, try scaling the recipe down to:

1 1/3 cups of sugar
1/5 cups of butter
1stp of baking soda
1 bag of popcorn

If you use a popcorn cooker instead of just bagged popcorn, make about 13 cups of popcorn which is about 1/2 – 2/3 cups of un-popped kernels.

Never dip you finger in the caramel, it will be very hot. Be sure to let the popcorn cool for approximately 15 minutes. After the cooling period, break apart and serve! Store in a jar to keep fresh; place in small Ziploc bag for the kids to take to school and be the envy of all their friends.

Robert was born in Midland, Ontario on January 11, 1953 and passed away in Nanaimo on November 20, 2009. Robert was the youngest of three. I was the oldest, Doug was the middle child. Our mother and father were divorced when we were very young. Our mother remarried a man who had three sons and then another girl and another boy was born. So there was eight of us altogether. Robert moved to Toronto, Ontario after high school and worked in various jobs there. He then moved to Edmonton, Alberta in 1976 and on to British Columbia in 1977. He lived in Vancouver, Victoria, and finally resided in Nanaimo. Robert had a great sense of determination and optimism. The more he could learn, the happier he was. He continued his education in B.C. at Simon Fraser University. He also took courses in the culinary field and worked as a chef for many years. He also studied law and worked as a paralegal. He studied religions and languages (he could speak many languages) and took many computer courses. He took a Medical Terminology Course, and Emergency First Aid which included CPR.

Unfortunately, Robert's health was never great. He was born a "Blue Baby" and not expected to live. He lived with the HIV virus and with cancer. This was a big factor in his determination to be able to work at home and was why he was taking the Medical Transcription course. Robert was involved with various charitable organizations for many, many years. He cooked numerous meals at food kitchens for the homeless, especially at Christmas and other holidays. He spent time at various senior centers, volunteering, and visiting the residents there. He was an active volunteer at the Nanaimo Parole Citizen Advisory Committee and one of the outstanding jobs he completed for them was their Committee By-laws.

I am very proud of the things that my brother achieved in his lifetime. I have received so many letters, calls and cards since his passing, all of them telling me how much he was liked and how much he will be missed. Robert spent most of his time helping others. I'm attaching a couple of pictures, one when he was very young. If there is any other information you need, please let me know. Thank you again for setting up this scholarship. It means so much to me that his name will carry on. And I know he would be extremely pleased that his name was helping others. That was his number one goal in his life - to help others.
