Honey Caramel Popcorn

Honey Caramel Corn

24 cups (6 quarts) popped popcorn

1 1/2 cup brown sugar

3/4 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup butter

1/3 cup honey

3/4 teaspoon baking soda

Stir brown sugar, salt, butter and honey on medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Bring to a boil over high heat, stirring constantly for three minutes. Remove from heat, add baking soda and stir well.  Pour over popcorn and stir well until evenly coated. If needed, put popcorn back into pot in batches while stirring to keep caramel soft and easier to distribute. Note: the caramel can burn easily, so be sure to stir thoroughly.  Spread out over lightly greased cookie sheet or countertop, let cool then break apart.
Makes six-seven 4x9 inch gusseted treat bags.
