Story:
This one came from Ben's sweet Grandmommy.
Aaaw...we sure miss her.
Ingredients:
15 C air-popped popcorn (that's about one batch in my air-popper)
1 C brown sugar
1 cube of margarine
1/4 C light Karo syrup
1/2 t baking soda
(& a brown paper bag)
Directions:
Pop the popcorn into a big bowl.
Put the brown sugar, margarine, and karo syrup in a glass bowl. (I use my 4 cup Pyrex glass measuring cup.) Microwave 2 minutes. Stir. Microwave 3 minutes more.
Add the baking soda and stir well. (This is the cool science experiment part where it changes color and texture.)
Pour over the popcorn and stir gently.
Pour the popcorn into a brown paper bag and microwave for 30 seconds. Shake well, then microwave for 1 more minute.
Pour into a bowl and as it cools, break it up with a wooden spoon.
Note:
I'm typically a butter kind of person (not margarine). But the popcorn gets harder and burns more easily with butter. Stick with the margarine.

Andrew loves this. He wants it every time he is in charge of FHE treats.
Hello Hills!!! I found your site off the Erwins...hope you don't mind that I did :o). You have some awesome recipes I need to try! I'll never forget when you brought me over dinner a few weeks after I had Jace. What a lifesaver! (It was crockpot chicken tacos. I still make them all the time!). Anyway, I hope you are doing well. I bet your kids are growing like weeds!!! Check us out at www.tntfam.blogspot.com.
