Caramel Corn

This is NOT my recipe, but I am no longer in contact with the person who shared it with me. I met her in Shanghai and I have heard she has now moved on as well.

This is a HUGE hit with the M's friends. I make it at almost every party. It also makes a nice "goodie" bag gift. I place it in clear plastic baggies with a ribbon tie.

 Caramel Corn

6 cups of popped corn (2bags)

1 cup of brown sugar

1/2 cup of butter

1/4 cup of light corn syrup

1/2 teaspoon of baking soda

1 tablespoon of vanilla

Directions:

Pop the popcorn and pour it out on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.

Combine: brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a saucepan and bring to a boil.

Boil for two minutes, stirring continuously. Remove from heat and add baking soda and vanilla. (it will bubble up, please be careful)

Pour the caramel over the popcorn and gently stir to coat evenly.

Enjoy!! (store leftovers in a airtight container)
