Packed Caramel Corn

Packed Caramel Corn

Ingredients:
8 cups popped corn 3 tablespoons light corn syrup
¾ cup packed brown sugar ¼ teaspoon baking soda
1/3 cup butter or margarine ¼ teaspoon vanilla

Directions:
Remove all unpopped kernels from popped corn. Put popcorn into a 17 x 12 x 2 baking pan.
I use the bottom part of our broiler pan. In a 1 ½ quart saucepan, combine sugar, butter, and
corn syrup. Cook and stir over medium heat until butter melts and mixture comes to boiling.
Cook, stirring occasionally, to 255º (hard ball stage), about 4 minutes more. Remove from
heat. Add soda and vanilla. Pour over popcorn; stir to coat. Bake in a 300º oven for 15
minutes; stir. Bake 5 minutes more. Transfer to large bowl; cool. Good for giving as gifts.
