How To Make nonnies caramel corn

Step 1

Fill large roasting pan with popped corn. (I use the top and bottom of a large roaster)

Step 2

In a large pan(I use a soup kettle) put the brown sugar,margarine,& corn syrup mix up and bring to a full boil,stirring constantly. Boil 5 minutes(still stirring) Remove from heat and add vanilla and soda(it will raise up)Blend well and pour evenly over pans of popped corn.
Step 3

Place in a preheated oven at 250 for 45 minutes. STIR EVERY 15 MINUTES. Spread on waxed paper an allow to cool. At this point try not to eat to much!!
