Last week, we unexpectedly lost my Aunt Donna. She was one of the sweetest souls ever to walk the face of the earth. Earth's loss is Heaven's gain. This is a recipe that she shared with me while I was studying home economics in middle school. Every time I make her popcorn, I remember her sweetness. This post is in her honor.
Ingredients:
2 sticks butter
1/2 cup white syrup
2 cups brown sugar
1/4 tsp. cream of tarter
1 tsp. salt
1 tsp. baking soda
6 - 7 quarts of popped popcorn
Mix butter, syrup and brown sugar; bring to boil for 6 minutes and keep stirring. Add cream of tarter, salt and baking soda. Stir until foamy; pour over popped popcorn. Spread popcorn on large cookie sheets after mixing well. Bake for 1 hour in 200* oven. Before the popcorn cools, dump it into a large paper bag, close the top and shake to break the caramel popcorn apart.
