Here's the ingredients for the caramel popcorn...
combined and just starting to melt!

 Pour 15 cups of popped popcorn into a brown paper bag.
Pour the sugar mixture right inside and stir with large spoon to coat evenly.
Then scoop it out onto baking sheet...some will stick on the inside of the bag.
No worries...super easy clean up!

 Bake for 1 hour at 200* F

 Let it cool and enjoy!

 Perfect in bags for neighbor gifts too!
