Caramel Popcorn!!!!

Caramel Popcorn

Ingredients
1 cup Butter
2 cups Brown sugar
1/2 cup Corn syrup
1 teaspoon Salt
1/2 teaspoon Baking soda
1 teaspoon Vanilla extract

5 quarts Popped popcorn
Preparation
1 Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (95 degrees C). Place popcorn in a very large bowl.

2 In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt butter. Stir in brown sugar, corn syrup and salt. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil without stirring 4 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in soda and vanilla. Pour in a thin stream over popcorn, stirring to coat.

3 Place in two large shallow baking dishes and bake in preheated oven, stirring every 15 minutes, for 1 hour. Remove from oven and let cool completely before breaking into pieces.

*****Tip I have never gone for the full hour. I have only done forty five minutes tops. I sometimes only do it to thirty minutes.
