2 1/2 qt. popcorn
1/2 c. butter (tastes better with butter)
1/2 c. brown sugar
1/4 c. light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. salt
1/4 tsp. baking soda
1/2 tsp. vanilla

In a 4-cup plus glass bowl put butter, brown sugar, syrup and salt. Microwave on High for 4 minutes, stirring twice while cooking. Add soda and vanilla. Stir. Pour over popped corn in a large paper grocery sack. Microwave on High one minute. Shake. Microwave on High one more minute. Shake. Microwave on High for 30 seconds. Shake, eat and enjoy! I pour it in a 9 x 13 pan to cool. While it cools, I mix gently to break apart the popcorn so it isn't in clumps.
