This is the one. I used 1/2 the popcorn, because we like it really coated. The key to me was the 200 degree oven. Other recipes I tried were at 250. That turned the caramel into a crispy but grainy coating, because at 250 and above, the caramel keeps cooking, and most ovens aren't 100% accurate. Good stuff!

Easy and tasty! Read the other reviews but here is what I did and recommend: popped 1 1/2 cups kernels popcorn the old fashioned way (in a pot with oil, used 1 1/2 cups brown sugar plus 1/2 cup white and boiled slowly for 5 min - perfect. Added 1/2 tsp vanilla extract (per another reviewer just before the baking soda. (Be careful when adding the soda as it will expand in your saucepan due to the chemical reaction. Placed popped corn two inches deep in roaster pan and about as high as it would go in large jelly roll pan and THEN drizzled caramel sauce over popcorn and gently stirred. Don't worry about it not covering every kernel. As you bake at 200 degrees, you will stir gently every 15 min and the sauce will coat the other kernels. Cools quickly on wax paper or parchment. Enjoy!

This is a wonderful recipe. This is the first time I have made it, and it was so easy, and pretty flexible too. I went to put in the baking soda and realized I had no baking soda. I pulled the pan off the burner and ran to the store, bout a 8 min round trip, and then came back and added the soda to finish it, and it still turned out beautifully. Will definitely make it again, it was so easy

I used this recipe to make caramel corn for the first time. It turned out beautifully, even without using a candy thermometer for the coating. I did read the other reviews and made less popcorn than 8 quarts and have a very generous coating on my popcorn. Definitely a keeper!
