Oven Caramel Corn

15 cups popped popcorn (2/3 cup unpopped)

1 c brown sugar
1/3 c butter
1/4 maple syrup or molasses
1/2 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking soda

Heat oven to 200*  Divide popcorn between 2 ungreased rectangular pans, 13x9x2.  Heat brown sugar, buttery, syrup/molasses and salt in a 3-qt sauce pan (or larger if you tend to walk away from the stove) over medium heat, stirring occasionally until bubbly around edges.  Cook 5 minutes stirring occasionally; remove from heat.  Stir in baking soda.

Pour mixture over popcorn; stir until well coated.  Bake 1 hour stirring about every 15 minutes.
