Because I want it all – when it comes to snacks.
That’s where this Halloween dessert recipe comes in (there’s candy corn). It hits all the high points – all of the things that a professional snacker such as myself might want in a couchsurfing treat.

Ingredients
- 1 bag popped popcorn
- 12 caramel candies (or our salted caramel sauce)
- 1/2 cup to 1 cup candy corn
- 6 – 12 Oreos

Place the Oreos in a sandwich bag. Use the back of a large spoon or a rolling pin to break them up into small pieces.
In a medium bowl, melt a couple of spoonfuls of butter. Add in the Oreos, half of the caramel and about two tablespoons of powdered sugar. Mix well. Dump into the bottom of several individual cups and press it together.
Pop the popcorn and mix with the candy corn in a large bowl. Here’s where your caramel popcorn recipe gets really fun.
Press the mixture on top of the Oreo crust. Lightly press down. Drizzle the rest of the caramel on top. Serve immediately.
The gooey caramel paired with the salty popcorn and the crunchy cookie is pretty amazing. Use your hands if you don’t mind sticky fingers or grab a large spoon.
