Caramel Corn

This was one of my favs growing up...who knew it was so easy to make. The other night, I walked up to my corner store with Brenda (friend, roommate, and champion Wheel of Fortune player) and Tanner (Brenda's ginormous dog who we call handsome) to buy the marshmallows for the recipe. I remember mom making this when I was a kid...she would roll the caramel popcorn into a ball about the size of a kids hand and wrap them in plastic wrap to be eaten with lunches and sometimes given out as part of a Halloween treat bag. So simple to make and quite a treat. Caramel Corn In a big fix & mix bowl, fill 1/2 full of popped corn In a heave sauce pan 1 stick Oleo (I use butter, not a fan of margarine...sorry Mom) 1/2 cup dark brown sugar 8 large marshmallow Melt over low heat & beat. When smooth, pour over popcorn and toss (I use a wooden spoon to stir it). I included a picture of the recipe card written by my Mom, Florence.
