"Delicious caramel corn that I just love. A friend always makes this for Superbowl parties. So this year I'm making a big batch of it and handing it out in our family's Christmas gift bags. Hope you love it as much as I do."

This is the same recipe I always use (although we don't usually add nuts), and it's a winner! It is so easy, and comes out great every time. I usually use 2 or 3 bags of microwave popcorn to start with, either plain or light butter. Yum!
