Caramel Caribou Popcorn (Moose Munch) Recipe posted by Staff Writer Pin Share Tweet Email This Caramel Caribou Popcorn is a copycat of the ice cream, dark chocolate ice cream with swirls of caramel, cashews, and white chocolate chunks. There’s an ice cream flavor I love called Caramel Caribou. It’s dark chocolate ice cream with swirls of caramel, cashews, and white chocolate chunks. This recipe is the reincarnation of that ice cream in popcorn form. And I can assure you, it’s as decadent as it sounds. Plus– if you’re a Harry & David Moose Munch fan, this treat is right up your alley 🙂 Caramel Caribou Popcorn 6027634 Ingredients 6 tbsp. butter 3 tbsp. corn syrup or corn syrup substitute 3/4 c. brown sugar 1/4 tsp. vanilla 1/4 tsp. baking soda 1 1/2 – 2 bags popped popcorn 1 c semi-sweet chocolate chips 1 c white chocolate chips 1 c cashews Instructions Preheat oven to 300º. Remove all unpopped kernels and pour popcorn into a bowl. Meanwhile: Combine butter, corn syrup, and brown sugar over medium heat. Cook and stir until mixture boils. Continue boiling at a steady rate without stirring for 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda and vanilla. Pour caramel over popcorn and stir to coat. Spread onto greased cookie sheet, and bake for 10-15 minutes (closer to 10 for chewy, closer to 15 for crunchy). Remove from oven and add chocolate chips and cashews, gently toss or stir in with a rubber spatula. Let cool briefly before returning to bowl and serving.
