BUTTER TOFFEE POPCORN
"The recipe I have is called "caramel corn", but everyone I made it for this year said it tasted like butter toffee popcorn. So I will rename the recipe and send it along."
1 cup butter (no substitutions) 2 cups light brown sugar 1/2 cup light corn syrup 1 teaspoon salt 1/2 teaspoon baking soda 1 teaspoon vanilla 2 batches popcorn 1 jar dry roasted peanuts (optional)
Melt butter, stir in brown sugar, corn syrup, and salt. Bring mixture to boil; boil hard for 5 minutes without stirring.
Remove from heat, add baking soda and vanilla. Stir quickly and pour over popcorn and mix well. Spread in a roasting pan.
Bake for 1 hour in a 250 degree F oven. Every 15 minutes, remove from oven and stir to mix evenly. Remove from oven and spread on absorbent paper to cool.
Warning: It doesn't last long in the house! Hide some from the kids for yourself!
