A few weeks ago for FHE I decided that I wanted to make caramel popcorn. Well, I had to pop the kernels over the stove and it didn't go over very well. I burned pretty much every batch I tried to make, got frustrated, and eventually just made the caramel popcorn anyway (although burned and disgusting). The next morning I tried three or four times to make good popcorn. It never worked. So, when I got home from Argentina I decided I would make good caramel popcorn. My Mom and I worked on it until we got it right. And it was so good.
(Not really) Caramel Sauce:
1 1/3 c sugar
1/2 c karo syrup
1 c butter
1 tsp vanilla
Mix until melted and boiling, turn to low heat for 4 minutes. Pour over large bowl of plain popcorn and mix until well-coated. Spread over wax paper or tinfoil to dry so it doesn't cluster too much.
Oh, and, luckily this recipe is 0 calories per serving! (Psych!)

Mmmmmmmm...I love caramel popcorn! And I love you!
So what was the trick to making it taste so yummy?!
Thanks for posting the recipe. I think i may have to try it out here. Can you believe that I haven't had any form of popcorn in the past 2 months? Yeah, people don't seem to eat it much. But last week we discovered at popcorn popper in the school and smuggled it upstairs to our lair. I'll let you know how it turns out in Taiwan. Love you!
I don't know what the trick was Lizzie...it's just pure gooey goodness that you don't find anywhere else!
