Caramel Corn

This stuff is fantastic! I keep eating it and eating it...

8 quarts popped corn (if you have an air-pop machine, this would be 2 batches)
1 c. butter
2 c. brown sugar
1/2 c. light corn syrup
1/2 tsp. baking soda
1 tsp. vanilla

Put popcorn in a large baking dish or pan (you might need two). Mix the butter, sugar, syrup, and baking soda together in a pot over medium heat. Bring to a light boil. Remove from heat once it starts boiling. Add vanilla and stir. Pour slowly over popcorn. Make sure it all gets coated. Place caramel
corn in oven and bake at 225 F for 15 minutes. Remove from oven and empty onto counter or table to cool (making sure your counter or table is clean). Eat it while it is warm! It's the best!
