Caramel Popcorn

CARAMEL POPCORN

3 qts popped corn (2 - 2/3 cup batches)

Mix together in a sauce pan:
1 cup butter
1 1/3 cups sugar
1/2 cup light karo
Boil for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes
Stir in 1 tsp vanilla extract
Pour over popcorn, mix and serve. Caution syrup will be HOT!

During the Holidays I add food coloring after the vanilla for a festive look. At Christmas time a batch of red and a batch of green look great together in a bowl or wrapped up as a gift. Try red for Valentine's Day and lavender or a spring green at Easter time. Red, White and Blue for the 4th of July... you get the idea.
