This is the easiest caramel corn I've ever made, and it's delicious!

1 c. unpopped popcorn

Pop this and put it in a large brown paper grocery bag.  I use a hot air
popper.

Melt one stick of margarine in the microwave in a med.-large bowl.  Add 1 c.
brown sugar, stir well and cook 2 minutes on High.  Add 1/4 c. white corn
syrup, stir and cook 2 1/2 minutes on High.  Take out and, while mixture is
boiling, add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda and 1/2 teaspoon salt.  Stir and pour
over popcorn in bag.  Fold down the top of the bag and put it in the
microwave.  Cook it on High for 4 minutes altogether, but take it out and
shake it every 45 seconds.  Shake it good!  At the end of 4 minutes, pour in
onto a couple of cookie sheets to cool.

This is a favorite of my two teenagers, but my husband and I eat our share,
too. 8-)
