I know for most of you this is not a new recipe, in fact it isn't even my own. My sister wants me to post it and I definitely think it is good enough to deserve one!
Crunchy Carmel Corn
1c. brown sugar
½ c. butter (I typically cut out at least 2 T.)
¼ c. light corn syrup
½ tsp. salt
½ tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla
Pop 1 cup un popped popcorn in air popper. Combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup and salt in a 2 quart micro proof bowl. Microwave on high for 3 minutes, stirring after 2 minutes. Add baking soda and vanilla. Place popped corn in a large brown paper bag. Pour syrup over corn and mix. Roll top of bag tightly to close. Microwave on high for 1 ½ minutes. Shake bag and microwave on high for 1 ½ minutes more. Pour onto flat surface, spread out and allow to cool. (or just put it in a big bowl and stir until cooled.)

Funny - I was just thinking about posting a recipe for 'crack corn' as my brother-in-law calls it for another sugary popcorn. My sister-in-law says it's just equal parts white sugar and cream. You cook on the stove top until softball (or longer for a crunchier version) and it is SO GOOD! If you ask me any kind of gooey popcorn is good!
