This is a recipe I got in high school home economics, and it's still the fastest and tastiest caramel corn recipe. Keep in mind, you can use microwave popcorn if you prefer. I still prefer popcorn popped on the stove.
Ingredients:
1 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 cup butter
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
3 1/2 quarts popped popcorn
Directions:
1. Place 3 1/2 quarts of popped popcorn in a double paper bag.
2. Microwave sugar, corn syrup, and butter for 2 minutes on high (may vary with your microwave-keep in mind this is an older recipe).
3. Add baking soda and vanilla to mixture and stir.
4. Dump mixture into popcorn and shake vigorously.
5. Microwave 1 1/2 minutes on high.
6. Shake vigorously and microwave 1 1/2 more minutes.
7. Shake vigorously and dump onto 2 cookie sheets.
8. Cool and enjoy.
