Addictive Vanilla Popcorn

I've never met anyone that doesn't like vanilla popcorn.  But if you quadruple the vanilla from 1/2 tsp. to 2 tsp. then you're in trouble unless you made a truckload.  Today I also discovered it gives it just a little extra to add cinnamon extract and increases the appeal even more.

You will need:

15-20 cups air-popped popcorn with unpopped kernels removed (seriously don't want to break your teeth on this when you're munching through your delicious treat)

• 1/2 cup butter 
• 1 cup sugar
• 1/4 cup light corn syrup
• 1/4 tsp. baking soda
• 2 tsp. vanilla extract
• 1 tsp. cinnamon extract optional

1.  In a 2-quart saucepan, cook butter, sugar, and light corn syrup over medium heat until bubbly.  Once it starts to get bubbly, cook for 3 minutes stirring constantly.

2.  Remove saucepan from heat and stir in baking soda, vanilla, and cinnamon extract.

3.  Pour over air-popped popcorn and stir well to coat.

4.  Spread over wax paper to cool or form into popcorn balls when cool enough to handle.
