    Insanely easy and delicious! I added 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract. Otherwise, made exactly as instructed. Turned out perfectly. Kind of addictive!

    hit it outta da ball park! i forgot the baking soda, so can't wait to see if that improves - mine was a tiny bit grainy. but, oh sooooo delish. I had used truffle salt the night before, and then used this recipe for the left-overs. really good.

    It's a perfect recipe, but I made an easy mistake. The first couple times I made it, the results were gourmet quality. The next couple times, the caramel didn't dry to the perfect shiny veneer of the initial batches and I realized the difference was that I had used dark brown sugar. Use the light sugar and real butter and you'll get raves from the crowd every time.

    THIS IS THE EASIEST AND BEST CARAMEL POPCORN EVER. I KNOW THAT IT IS GOING TO BE A BIG HIT WITH MY MOTHER. ALL SHE ASKED FOR FOR CHRISTMAS WAS CARAMEL POPCORN. SO....I MADE IT AND ADDED LOTS OF LOVE TO THE RECIPE.

    Easy to make and a great tasting caramel corn. I made it for a bake sale where there are always lots and lots of traditional baked goods so I was looking for something different.

    I calculated that 8 quarts of popcorn would be 32 cups. If you want a totally caramel coated mixture you should use less popcorn. This comes out lightly coated with some white from the popcorn showing. I like it better than a heavy coating--not so overwhelmingly sweet.
