Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with a piece of parchment paper and spray lightly with cooking spray.
- Put the oil and 3 or 4 popcorn kernels in a large pot with a lid (at least 6 quarts). Cover the pot and turn the heat up to medium-high. Wait until you hear one of the kernels pop, then uncover the pot and add the remaining kernels. Quickly stir everything together then replace the lid. Cook the popcorn until the kernels begin popping and then reduce the heat slightly. Cook, shaking often, until the rate of popping starts to slow, 2 to 3 minutes. Do not wait for all of the kernels to pop or they will burn. Take off the heat.
- Combine the brown sugar, corn syrup, butter and salt in a medium pot. Heat over medium heat until melted and smooth. Stir in the baking soda.
- Pour the nuts on top of the popcorn. Then pour the caramel into the pot with the popcorn; stir to coat and spread the popcorn onto the prepared baking sheet.
- Bake, stirring occasionally, until slightly golden, about 20 minutes. Cool completely, and then break apart before serving.

THE EASIEST AND BEST CARAMEL CORN I'VE EVER MADE
Oh LORD, have mercy! LOL! This stuff is the kind-of snack you sit down in front of the tv with and you look down and it's all gone! The best part about this recipe is (other than the end product) the fact no candy thermometer is necessary.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 200°.
- Spray your largest cookie sheets.
- Pop the popcorn in the oil and set aside. I do this in two batches. Place in a very large bowl. (Plastic bowls work really well because the caramel won't stick; you could also spray the bowl with a bit of Pam).
- Over medium heat in a heavy saucepan, melt butter and stir in brown sugar, salt and syrup. Bring to a rolling boil.
- When it starts to boil, boil a full 5 minutes stirring constantly with a wooden spoon. (I used a plastic spatula and ended up sacrificing it)
- Remove from the heat and add the soda. Pour caramel directly on the popcorn and stir to coat completely.
- Pour popcorn onto the sheets and bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15-20 minutes. Allow to cool and break into pieces. Store in zip-top bags.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Spread nuts on a small rimmed baking sheet, and bake until fragrant and beginning to brown, 10 to 15 minutes. Remove from oven, and let stand until cool. Coarsely chop; set aside.
- Line a baking sheet with a Silpat (a French nonstick baking mat); set aside. In a medium stockpot, heat oil over high heat. Add popcorn, and cover. Once the corn begins to pop, shake the pan constantly. When the corn has finished popping, remove from the heat, uncover; set aside.
- In a large deep pot, at least 12 inches wide, stir together water, sugar, and corn syrup. Add vanilla pod and seeds, cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, cardamom, and salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat without stirring. Using a pastry brush dipped in water, brush down the sides of the pan to remove any undissolved sugar granules. Reduce heat to medium, and cook, tilting and swirling the pan, until the mixture just begins to smoke and is a deep caramel color, 4 to 5 minutes more.
- Stir in the popcorn and nuts. Cook, stirring, while moving the pot on and off the heat to prevent the caramel from burning, until the popcorn is completely coated and the mixture is deep mahogany in color. Pour onto prepared baking sheet, and spread in an even layer. Let cool. Remove and discard vanilla bean. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
PUFFED CARAMEL CORN
Puffed corn can be found in the potato chip aisle of your grocery store. This is a great caramel corn without hulls or unpopped kernels. Warning: you need to make a double batch of this because it doesn't last long, at least not in my house. Very addicting. Love it!

Steps:
- Pop popcorn according to package directions.
- Have two bowls ready.
- Pour popcorn in one bowl.
- Gently Shake the bowl to get the seeds to the bottom of the bowl.
- Remove popcorn slowly into the second bowl leaving seeds in the 1st bowl.
- Toss seeds. Repeat with the second and third bag.
- Prepare 2 baking sheets with a baking mat or parchment paper.
- Preheat oven to 250*F
- In a pot, add butter and cook over medium heat until melted.
- Add brown sugar, corn syrup and salt.
- Bring to a boil and cook for an additional 4 minutes, stirring regularly so caramel doesn't burn on the bottom of the pan.
- After 4 minutes, turn off the heat and remove the pan from heat.
- Add vanilla extract and be prepared for the mixture to spit at you. Stir to incorporate.
- Add baking soda and stir. Mixture will become fluffy and increase in volume.
- Pour caramel mixture over your prepared popcorn.
- Stir well, careful not to touch the caramel mixture to your skin or it will burn you.
- Spread caramel corn on baking sheets, dividing mixture between the two sheets.
- Evenly space the racks in your oven so you can get both in there at the same time, one on top and one on bottom.
- Bake for 15 minutes.
- Remove caramel corn, and stir. Place back in oven on the opposite oven shelf.
- Repeat 15 minute baking and stirring intervals until caramel corn has been baked 2 times total.
- Remove from the oven, stir and let cool.
- I like to stir again after caramel corn has been out of the oven for 5 minutes to prevent clumping.
- Serve once cool.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 250°F Spray large baking sheet or roasting pan with cooking oil spray and set aside.
- In a large sauce pan, melt butter over low heat. Add next 3 ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Cover, reduce heat and gently boil without stirring for 4-5 minutes.
- Remove from heat and carefully add soda and vanilla (it will froth and foam). Mix real well.
- Remove unpopped kernels from popcorn (see tip below). Spread popcorn (& nuts if using) out on pan. Pour caramel mixture over popcorn and mix well. Don't worry if every kernel isn't coated. It will get better distributed when you stir it while it is baking.
- Bake 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes. Cool completely. Break apart and store in tightly sealed container.
- Tip: the easiest way to get the kernels out is to put all the popcorn in a large bowl. Shake it slightly so the kernels settle to the bottom of the bowl, then transfer the popcorn, handful by handful to the roasting pan, leaving the kernels behind.
