For a deeper caramel flavor, use dark brown sugar. Ensure your microwave-safe bowl is large enough, as the mixture will expand when the baking soda is added. Store in an airtight container to maintain maximum crispness. Consider adding a pinch of sea salt to the cooled mixture for an enhanced salty-sweet contrast. Different microwave ovens may vary in power. Adjust the cooking times accordingly. Watch carefully to avoid burning. For a festive touch, consider adding holiday-themed sprinkles after the final microwave and before cooling.
