When I was a child Grams would make this recipe once a year for me as a special treat. I loved this treat so much I now gladly make it for other people especially since it makes such a large quantity. And as Grams always did, feel free to alter the nuts and quantity to your taste. Ingredients:
16 cups air popped corn |
1 1/2 cups pecans |
1 1/2 cups walnuts |
1 cup light brown sugar |
1/2 cup butter |
1/2 cup light corn syrup |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon vanilla |
Directions:
1. In a large roasting pan (17x11-inch) mix together the popped corn and nuts. 2. Preheat oven to 250°F. 3. In a heavy 2 quart saucepan over medium heat add the brown sugar, butter, light corn syrup and salt. 4. Bring to a boil. 5. Boil for 5 minutes. 6. Remove from heat. 7. Add the vanilla 8. Pour the sugar mixture over the popped corn and nuts. 9. Bake 1 hour. 10. Spoon onto Wax paper to cool, separating large clumps as you go. |
