3 quart popped popcorn (12 cups) you can use microwave popcorn
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
1 stick butter
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
Here's what you do:
Spray a large shallow roasting pan with cooking spray. Combine popcorn in pan and place in 250 degree oven while you prepare your glaze.
In a heavy 2 quart sauce pan mix brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and salt. Stir constantly and bring to a boil over medium heat. Without stirring, boil 5 minutes. Remove sauce pan from heat, stir in vanilla and baking soda. Pour the syrup over the popcorn making sure to coat each piece. The caramel hardens pretty fast, so make sure to move quickly as pour and mix!
Bake at 250 degree oven for 60 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Remove from oven, let cool, and break popcorn apart.
This stuff is delicious and melt-in-your-mouth, sweet and crunchy! Enjoy
