Caramel Popcorn

This was a very easy, quick and yummy snack. I was sitting around and really wanted some popcorn. My mom used to make this when we were watching movies.

So you just pop some popcorn. I used loose popcorn and a pot with some oil in the bottom. I have learned the hard way to constantly shake while the popcorn is popping. I then set the popped corn aside in a large bowl for when the caramel is ready to coat it.

To make the caramel you need:

• 1 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 cup margarine
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

With the caramel, all I did was mix until boiling. Then stirring constantly, boil for 5 minutes. After you are done with making the caramel, pour over your popcorn bowl. Mix well and spread over wax paper.



Then, enjoy your yummy treat. I am sure you can mix in nuts, dried fruit or whatever you like to make this a little more nutritious but just the caramel was good for me!
