Directions
- Preheat oven to 250 degrees (120 degrees C). Coat a large roasting pan with cooking spray. Place the popcorn in the roasting pan and keep warm in the oven.
- In a heavy saucepan over medium heat, combine brown sugar, 1 cup butter and 1/2 cup corn syrup. Heat, without stirring, to 250 to 265 degrees F (121 to 129 degrees C), or until a small amount of syrup dropped into cold water forms a rigid ball. Remove from heat and stir in vanilla. Pour syrup over popcorn and stir to coat. Return popcorn to oven.
- In the same saucepan, combine chocolate chips with remaining 1/2 cup butter and 2 cups corn syrup. Cook, stirring, over medium heat, until chocolate is melted. Remove from heat and quickly pour over popcorn, stirring to coat.
- Return popcorn to oven for 30 to 40 minutes, stirring occasionally. Remove and pour out onto waxed paper lined sheets to cool completely.
