Ingredients:
- 14 cups

- 2 cups
- whole almonds and/or roasted, salted cashews (optional)
- 1 cup pretzels broken into pieces

- packed brown sugar
- 3/4 cup

- light-colored corn syrup
- 1/2 teaspoon

Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 300 degrees F. Remove all unpopped
kernels from popped popcorn. Put popcorn and, if desired, nuts into a

the caramel mixture.
2. Butter a large piece of foil; set aside. For
caramel, in a medium saucepan, combine brown sugar, butter, and corn
syrup. Cook and stir over medium heat until mixture boils. Continue
boiling at a moderate, steady rate, without stirring, for 5 minutes
more.
3. Remove saucepan from heat. Stir in baking soda and

minutes. Stir mixture; bake for 5 minutes more. Spread caramel corn on
prepared foil; cool. Place caramel corn in container and cover with
