Scale
For the Popcorn –
- 75g Salted Popcorn, already popped
- 110g Unsalted Butter
- 220g Dark Brown Sugar
- 85g Golden Syrup
- 1/2 tbsp Ground Cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp Baking Powder
- 1 1/2 tsp Vanilla Extract
For the Cinnamon White Chocolate –
- 200g White Chocolate
- 1/2 tsp Ground Cinnamon
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 160C, line a couple of baking trays with parchment and set aside. Pour the popcorn into a large mixing bowl and set aside.
- In a large saucepan, melt the butter, brown sugar and golden syrup, over medium heat and bring the mixture to a rolling boil, stirring frequently. Remove from heat and stir the mixture for 1 minute to cool it slightly.
- Add the cinnamon, vanilla, and baking powder to the sugar/butter mixture. Stir to combine.
- Pour the sugar/butter mixture over the popcorn and toss to coat. Spread the popcorn mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets. Bake for 10-12 minutes or until the sugar coating is set.
- Allow the popcorn to cool slightly.
- While the popcorn bakes and cools, gently melt the white chocolate and stir in the ground cinnamon. Take it off the heat when the chocolate has melted, leave to set or transfer to the fridge to chill.
- When the chocolate has set, cut two-thirds of it into bite-size chunks and mix through the cooled popcorn. Remelt the remaining white chocolate and drizzle all over the popcorn and chocolate chunks. Either tuck in with the drizzle still melted or let it set up.
