OVEN CARAMEL POPCORN
This is so easy, almost effortless to make. It tastes as good, if not better than Cracker Jacks. A snack for anytime or occasion. I got this recipe from my sister in Lecompte, La. I have been using it for 30 years now. It is great for snacks and gifts for any occasion for POPCORN lovers.
