Caramel Popcorn

February 20, 2009

Caramel popcorn is a real treat, and best of all you can make caramel popcorn at home. It is easy to do.  This is my mother’s recipe for caramel corn. Judy Chatham makes this at Christmas.  Carmel corn is a delicious treat.  You can give this away, it keeps fresh for 10 days or so.
