Absolutely delicious! I drizzled on some melted semisweet chocolate and will be giving this in gift baskets to family. I don't know if it is just my stove, but be careful heating the caramel mixture on high--it boiled way too quickly (before the butter even melted, even though I was stirring rapidly.) I will heat over med/med high next time.

This was great! It it way better than any store bought caramel popcorn I have ever had. After reading reviews I decreased the heat in my oven to 225 since my oven runs hot and only left it in the oven for about 25 minutes, stirring it about 4 times in that time. Also I used 10 cups of popped popcorn and probably next time will use more since it is still pretty heavily coated. All in all this is delicious and I will be making it often I'm sure!

This recipe is EXCELLENT! It was very easy and does it ever taste good! I made it twice, the first time forgetting about the baking soda and vanilla and it STILL turned out. The second time I didn't forget those two ingredients but also added a smidgen of salt. You gotta try this one!! Instead of the two minute marker, I measured with a candy thermometer to 250 and then dumped the caramel onto the popcorn. This is also easy to double - I used a turkey roasting pan in place of the jellyroll pan and turned my warm caramel corn onto a Silpat to cool.

Absolutely addictive!!! We made it for the holidays and it was gone just as quickly as it was coming out of the oven. Way better than anything you could ever buy in a store! This recipe is a keeper!

Well, I doubled the recipe and everything turned out gritty and sugary, not caramelly. With all the cooking and baking I've done, I didn't know the sugar boil time would need to be doubled as well. I read a review below that stated to double boil time if you double recipe, but I read it after I ruined my double batch. Bummer. I put a whole bunch of peanuts and cashews in with the popcorn as well. Flavor is great, but texture with a double batch following recipe's instructions was a failure.

This is so good! It seemed too easy to be true! I made a half batch, but still followed the directions exactly. It turned out great, no burnt pieces at all. I will definitely be making this again. Also, as a bonus, the pans were surprisingly easy to clean up. I let them soak in a little water for a few minutes and they cleaned right up!

I made this popcorn for my husband to take to work as gifts for his coworkers this year. I got this e-mail from one them the next day, "OMG that popcorn is like crack! How much can I pay you to bring me more? We're like ravenous wolves fighting over it." That's how good it is!!!

This is definitely the best caramel corn ever! I have even changed it up a bit by adding almonds to the popcorn before coating.
It is definitely on the top of my baking list for Christmas, and makes a very appreciated gift.
Thank you!

If you double this recipe, you need to adjust the boiling time. I learned that the hard way. Once I followed the recipe correctly, it turned out great. LIke others have also said, cooking time was less, my new oven seems hot.

Out of all the food I made for Christmas gifts, this stuff is by far my favorite. It's inexpensive, fairly quick and easy, and it tastes SO GOOD! I did start the caramel mixture on low heat until everything was pretty well mixed, then turned it up to high. I also only baked it for 30 minutes. THANK YOU for this recipe!!!

I made a couple of batchs of this and never tried it but gave it to a friend. She called and said, "you know I have never had caramel corn I like and I almost told you that but didn't want to hurt your feelings. Now I am glad I didn't say anything because I couldn't keep my hands out of it. Can you teach me how to make it"
So I said sure. Thanks so much for a winning recipe. Easy to make,just follow the instructions and it comes out perfectly. Don't need to change or substitute anything

Wonderful caramel corn, very similar to my mil's recipe. I did add nuts to one batch. Also tried cinnamon in a batch and it was tasty too. I also baked on the foil as mentioned, made clean up a breeze. Hint, it's hard to stop eating it!!

Yum! Yum! Yum! I baked it on the aluminum slide foil so nothing stuck to it & it made for an easy clean-up. I also added some almonds. It coated 1 bag of microwave popcorn (which is supposed to yield 7 cups). Buttery, salty, sweet... how can you go wrong? ;)

Wonderful! I made a double batch last night to take to my Book Club meeting tonight, and I can't keep out of it! The only thing I did different was add some fleur de sel for a bit of a salty crunch.

I was a little skeptical considering there were alot of posts that said it turned out burnt. I turned down the heat to 225 and cooked for longer tasting every now and then to make sure it didn't over cook. WOW it was really yum. I also used this Amish ladyfinger popcorn I have (it is tiny and tastes crunchy even after I use the air popper most popcorn tastes chewy and like cardboard in the air popper). I will be making this again and again and it will be perfect for gifts. Thanks soooo much!
