CRACKER JACKS
4 cups freshly popped corn lightly salted
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter or margarine
1/2 cup corn syrup (light)
1/2 tsp. vanilla extract
1/2 tsp. baking soda
Put popcorn in shallow roasting pan (large pan).
In heavy saucepan mix sugar, butter and corn syrup. Stir over medium heat until boiling. Continue boiling 5 min. without stirring. Remove from heat; add vanilla and baking soda. Pour over popcorn; stir to coat well.
Bake in preheated 250 degree oven for 1 hr., stirring several times. Cool, break apart and store in tightly covered container. (Cool on waxed paper so it won't stick to pan)
***NOTE: if desired 1 cup peanuts may be added to popcorn BEFORE adding caramel sauce.
