This is a fun easy treat. We did this for FHE treat last night. This recipe came from Aaron's sister Beverly. We rarely use the nuts and cool it on a couple of cookie sheets. 4 quarts of popped corn is about 1 c. of kernels, air popped.
Microwave Caramel Corn
1 c. brown sugar
1 stick butter or margarine
1/4 c. white corn syrup
1/2 tsp. baking soda
12 oz. nuts (optional)
4 quarts of popped corn
Combine first 3 ingredients in a 1 1/2 qt. microwave safe bowl. Cook on HIGH in the microwave until mixture begins to boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Remove from microwave and stir in soda. (It will foam up and the kids love that). Put popped corn in a brown grocery bag. (Add nuts to the popped corn here, if using.) Pour syrup over corn. Close bag and shake. Cook in bag on HIGH in microwave for 1 1/2 minutes (yes, put the bag in the microwave). Shake and cook another 1 1/2 minutes (may need another) pour into bowl to cool.
