Ingredients

18 cups popped corn
1 tablespoon butter or light margarine
2/3 cup light corn syrup
1 1/2 - 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1 (3-ounce) package butter pecan, butterscotch, or instant vanilla pudding mix
1/2 teaspoon salt

Directions:

Preheat oven to 300°. Pam spray a big roasting pan. Popcorn in air popper (enough kernels to make 18 cups popped corn). Put popped corn in pan and keep warm in 300° oven. In glass measuring cup, microwave butter until melted (or melt in saucepan on stove). Stir in corn syrup, vanilla, and pudding mix with a fork. Pour syrup over popcorn and toss with wooden spoon. Sprinkle salt over corn. Toss; taste; sprinkle. Do it again until it says, “Hello!” Return to 300° oven for 8 minutes. Toss. Return to 300° oven for 8 minutes. Toss again. Determine if it needs another few minutes to make it glossy. Toss. Taste. (My oven dictates another 8 minutes, but all ovens are different. Use your infallible good taste.) Turn out on large pieces of foil to cool. Break into bits. Store leftovers (if any) in covered tin box.
