Cracker Jacks


A quick, easy snack that the kids love! Warning, this version does not come with a little prize at the bottom of the bowl.
3/4 c packed brown sugar
1/4 cup butter
3 T corn syrup
1/4 t salt
1/4 t baking soda
1/4 t vanilla
8 cups popped pocorn
1 c peanuts (optional)
Combine brown sugar, butter, corn syrup, and salt over low heat until the butter is all melted. Cook without stirring for 3 min. Add baking soda and vanilla. Pour onto popcorn and peanuts and mix until evenly coated. Bake 15 minutes at 300 degrees. Break into pieces.
ENJOY!
