Mmmm...

i have become obsessed with this blog. i found it through my sister-in-law's website somehow. tonight i was flipping through some of the recipes and found this:

microwave carmel popcorn

"it has perfect flavor, great texture, and the proportions are just right. this is definitely a must for movie nights, and super easy to make!"

1 c. brown sugar

1 stick butter

1/4 c. corn syrup

1/2 t. salt

1/2 t. baking soda

3 quarts plain popped corn

grocery store sized paper bag

put popped corn in paper bag. in a 2 quart dish, combine all ingredients but baking soda and popped corn. place dish in microwave then bring to a boil then cook for 2 minutes. remove from microwave and stir in baking soda. pour syrup over popped corn in the grocery bag. close the bag well and shake vigorously. put bag in microwave and cook for 1 1/2 minutes. pour cooked caramel corn onto lined cookie sheet and allow to cool.

(this is for fairly gooey caramel, if you want a crispier texture, cook the caramel longer before you add the soda and pour it onto the popped corn.)
