Karo Corn

 

 

I was introduced to this sweet treat from my college roommate Jennifer Parker (well now her name is Jennifer Taylor).  I have no idea where she got the recipe from but it has become a quick go to snack when I need to provide something for a crowd!

 

Karo Corn

1 C. Butter (you can use margarine but butter is better!)

1 1/2 C. Sugar

1/2 C Karo Syrup

1/2 tsp. Vanilla

 

Mix butter, sugar and Karo in a heavy saucepan.  Bring to a boil.  Boil for 3-4 minutes.  Remove from heat and add the vanilla.  Pour over 3 batches of plain popped popcorn.

 

 

I have a trusty air popper.  I honestly cannot believe it is still working (It's about 25 years old).  I clean my kitchen sink real good

 and pop my popcorn into it.

Then I make the syrup

And pour it over the popcorn

I stir it up real good - do this kind of quickly if you can

Then I pile it into a bowl and enjoy!

This is so fast and easy it's no wonder I enjoy making this!

(and eating it also)
