I have made this for the last two Christmases for gifts, but I have to make extra because we eat so much of it before it is packaged. I am thinking I might make it for Halloween also.

YUM!! This recipe is simple to make and tastes just like Fisher's popcorn we get at the beach in Ocean City, MD. Makes great Christmas gifts.

I started making this last year and will make this every Christmas. This is easy and delicious. My only issue is that the caramel doesn't stick really well to the nuts, so most of them end up settling in the bottom of the container. I like it without nuts too, so I may just leave them out completely from now on.

I have been making this recipe for years. BUT quite a few years ago I stopped cooking the caramel mixture on the stove top. I just put the butter, brown sugar and corn syrup (I use light corn syrup) in a microwavable container and nuke for 2 minutes, stir and then nuke for 2 more minutes. I don't use salt either. This way is so easy and you don't have to stand over the stove and stir.I add in toasted pecans but any toasted nut is good.
