  • 329g (1 1/2 cup) brown sugar, firmly packed
  • 178 ml (3/4 cup) light corn syrup

Directions:

  1. Pop the corn and keep warm in 250º oven
  2. Bring sugar, butter, and corn syrup to a boil over medium/high heat. Boil 5 minutes.
  3. Remove from heat and mix in spices (not the Coffee Cherry) and salt.
  4. Fold syrup through popcorn (it is easiest to do this with your hands so a set of latex gloves will come in handy!) Spread evenly on a Silpat lined sheet pan
  5. Using a fine mesh sieve, dust the coated popcorn with Coffee Cherry and gently fold the popcorn over itself to coat evenly
  6. Bake 30-40 minutes at 250º, stirring every 15 minutes.
  7. Popcorn will become crunchy as it cools.
