Yesterday I saw a post requesting a recipe for caramel corn. I found this one in the Better Homes and Garden's American Best Loved Community Recipes Makes

22 cups (22 servings).

1. Preheat oven to 250 deg; Put the popcorn in a 17x12x2-inch roasting pan or large foil pan; set aside

2. Melt butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Stir untilthe mixture starts to boil. (the syrup should boil over its entire surface) Boil for 5 min. w/o stirring.

3. Remove from heat. Stir in baking soda and vanilla, then pour the caramel mixture over the popped corn, stirring to coat.

4. Bake, uncovered, for 1 hour, stirring every 15 min.

5. Remove the caramel corn from oven and spread out on a large piece of foil to cool. Break into clusters. Store in air tight containers REC.FOOD.RECIPES ARCHIVES
