So i got a bit bored and decided to make some pop corn. I was reading on the bag a recipe for caramel pop corn and had the ingredients so my boredom got the better of me. The recipe needed 3/4 cup of sugar (:eek:) and 150g of butter (:eek: ) so I used 1/2 cup of sugar and 100g of butter. Well I melted the butter and added the sugar, it started kinda boiling/frothing and I did this for 5 minutes or so like it said. When I went to pour the stuff over the popcorn it was a bit too thick, so there's like big chunky spots of caramel. And its a little bit wrong, I mean its ok, but maybe I didnt leave it long enough cause it still tastes a little sugary. So what can I add to make this thinner? More butter, less sugar? Any other ingredients I can use next time?
ps I say "cooking" because this is as close to cooking as I get really

pour gravy over it. Lots of gravy. Tons of gravy. So much that it should be called pop gravy.

:( I didn't feel owned until you said that. I lol'd
So how do you make caramel popcorn randetica? Or do you just buy it? We've got these things called Lolly Gobble Bliss Bombs - and they are fucking awesome. I'm kinda trying to replicate them, which is why I want to thin the caramel down a bit

gravy on popcorn? I dunno, I guess that could work as a savory snack, I'm going for the sweet factor here. You know, I've never made gravy but I'm pretty sure that a retarded monkey could make gravy.

ok, if you don't know how to make gravy then just pour bacon grease all over it. Fuck butter. Bacon grease is where it's at.

on the contrary, monkeys can make caramel - gravy is much more complicated. just follow the directions next time and toss out what you dont want to use.

I thought gravy was just some powder and water?
