1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
1 large brown paper bag |
Directions:
1. Put popcorn into a large paper bag.
2. Mix: brown sugar, margarine, corn syrup, and salt in a 6 cup size microwaveable glass bowl. (I usually use my glass, 4 cup measuring cup).
3. Put it in the microwave for 1-3 minutes until it bubbles.
4. Take out and stir well.
5. Microwave 3 more minutes, stirring mixture after EVERY MINUTE. Be careful it gets very hot at this point!
