We love the Pumpkin Patch!!! Going there just always marks Fall. This year we had an extra big group......our entire family, and it was very special. Today I'll feature the "Grandpunkins". They got a kick out of finding the "perfect one". Fall is mine and Steve's favorite season. We love everything about it. I have some foods that are a tradition around this time. Here's one of my favorites!
CARAMEL POPCORN
1 CUP FIRMLY PACKED LIGHT
BROWN SUGAR
1/2 CUP BUTTER
1/2 CUP LIGHT KARO
1/2 TSP SALT
1/2 TSP VANILLA
1/2 TSP BAKING SODA
4 QUARTS POPPED POPCORN (PUT IN A BIG BOWL)
COOK SUGAR, BUTTER, KARO AND SALT OVER MEDIUM HEAT, STIRRING CONSTANTLY UNTIL MIXTURE BOILS. CONTINUE TO COOK 5 MINUTES WITHOUT STIRRING. REMOVE FROM HEAT, ADD VANILLA AND SODA. STIR WELL. POUR MIXTURE OVER POPCORN, STIR TO COAT WELL. SPREAD ON COOKIE (UNGREASED) SHEET. BAKE AT 250 UNCOVERED FOR 1 HOUR, STIRRING OCCASIONALLY. REMOVE FROM OVEN AFTER 1 HOUR AND IMMEDIATELY START LIFTING FROM COOKIE SHEET WITH SPATULA UNTIL IT STOPS STICKING. LEAVE ON PAN UNTIL COOL. BREAK APART WHEN COOL. STORE IN AIRTIGHT CONTAINER. COOK ON MEDIUM HEIGHT IN OVEN. MAKES GREAT TEACHER HAPPIES!!!
