Brown Sugar Kettle Corn is kettle corn’s slightly more fun and mature sibling. Salty, sweet, and just a bit caramelly, it’s perfect for movie night or an afternoon snack.

Ingredients
2tablespoonsvegetable oil or cooking oil of your choice
1/4cuppopcorn kernels
2tablespoons(25g) brown sugarnot packed
1/4teaspoonsalt
Instructions
Place a large bowl on the counter to pour your finished kettle corn into.
To a large, heavy-bottomed pot, add oil and 3 kernels of popcorn. Cover and heat over medium-high heat (medium if your stove runs hot). When you hear all three kernels pop, add remaining popcorn and salt. Shake pan for a few seconds to coat the kernels in oil and then pour sugar and salt over the top. Return lid to the pot, leaving a small crack to allow steam to escape.
Shake every few seconds until popcorn starts popping, and then shake continuously. Pull the pan from heat when there are between 1 and 2 seconds between pops. Immediately transfer popcorn to your prepared bowl, shaking the pan as you go.
