Microwave Caramel Popcorn
Diana

In a glass bowl, mix:
1 cup brown sugar
¼ cup dark karo syrup
½ cup butter
½ tsp salt.

Cook on high 2 min. and stir. Cook on high 4 min, stir in:
1 tsp vanilla
½ tsp baking soda.

This will cover ¾ cup of unpopped popcorn. Put popped corn in unrecycled brown grocery store bag. Pour caramel over popcorn and shake. Fold down bag and cook on high 1 min. Shake. Cook on high 1 min. Shake, cook 1 min and shake again. Cook 30 sec. and shake, cook 30 sec. and shake. Pour into pan and let cool.

Note: If your microwave cooks really high like mine then reduce the 4 minutes to 3 minutes and cut out one of the 1 min. cook and shake times or adjust as necessary so it doesn’t burn the caramel popcorn.
