Gooey Popcorn

This treat is one of my family's favorites to make and eat. It is so simple that you'll wonder how you ever went without it. Not only is it simple, but it tastes so good. After making this treat you'll wonder, how it is not a sin to each so much of your batch.

Every year for Christmas, we start making this yummy treat for our neighbors. I think that it's their favorite too. The best time to eat it is about a minute after spreading it out on the pan. Mmm...it's delicious.

Ingredients
1 qt (quart) popcorn kernels
5 cups miniature marshmallows
1 cup margarine
1/2 cup Karo syrup
1 tsp. vanilla
1 1/2 cup sugar

Mix together in a large bowl popped kernels and marshmallows

Stove Top:
At a medium high heat start melting butter, add in sugar, and Karo syrup. Mix ingredients till blended and comes to a boil. Simmer the mixture at a medium heat for 3 minutes.

After the 3 minutes, take off of the heat and pour the teaspoon of vanilla and stir in.

Pour all around the popcorn and marshmallows and mix together.

Place on a sheet of wax paper.

Enjoy!!!
