Super Easy Yummy Caramel Corn

We tried this the other night.  It was so good and so fast and easy.

12 C. popped popcorn (about 1/2 c. kernels)
1 C. brown sugar
1/4 C. white karo syrup
1/2 t.  (if you are using salted microwave popcorn then omit the salt)
1 stick real butter
1/2 t. baking soda
1 t. vanilla

Put popcorn in a large bowl.  Larger than you think you need.  I had to use one of my big pans.  Set aside.

Put brown sugar, karo syrup and butter in a microwaves safe bowl.  Cut the butter in pieces so it melts a little faster.  Microwave for 30 seconds and stir to combine.  Microwave for 2 minutes and then take it out and stir.  Microwave for 2 more minutes and stir. 

Add the baking soda and vanilla and stir.  Pour over popcorn and mix well.  Dump out on a piece of foil or cookie sheet and let cool for a minute.  And then eat. 
*I found this on my favorite Our Best Bites Blog.
