Hi all,

I am excited, Have just experimented with some butter toffee popcorn that works a treat. This was a recipe for toffeed almonds so I'm pretty sure you could use nuts instead of corn. You could probably use plain popcorn but I don't like finding a hard kernel in mine so prefer the fluffy puffed corn.

1/2 cup dextrose

1/2 cup butter

1.5 tablespoons water

1/2 packet puffed corn (Abundant Harvest brand)

Use a deep, heavy-bottomed saucepan to heat all of the ingredients, except the corn. Stir the mixture constantly to prevent scorching. I stirred until mixture become a golden colour. Then I added the puffed corn and mixed until all toffee coated the corn. Add a bit more if it is sloppy at the bottom.  Pour the nut mixture onto a greased cookie sheet or greaseproof paper and separate the clumps into bite sized pieces.

Allow to cool -(If you can!!!!)-mixture can burn your fingers until cool - (but that didn't stop me!!)

Cheers Angela

This will be great for parties or taking to the movies! Yippee

I couldnt find the puffed corn at the supermarket yesterday, they had run out and ended up buying Kamut, which looks like it is some sort of puffed wheat. Used that instead of puffed corn and it is nice too. Thanks for posting this recipe which is fast becoming a family favourite in our house.

Hi all

I just bought a popcorn maker at Kmart for $12.  Corn kernells $1.  So easy to use and no mess.  Just put a little melted butter over this time.  Next time toffee corn.  Cheap easy to store and always fresh.

Still looking for ice cream maker. Target have in cataloge but not in stock.  Will have to go to good guys.
