Cinnamon Sugar Popcorn

Last night, I was looking to make something that would help use up an extra huge batch of cinnamon sugar I had mixed up.  So thanks to the wonderful world of google search, I found this YUMMY popcorn recipe on allrecipes.com.  If you love kettle corn, then you will really like this.  It's sugary and salty, at the same time!

CINNAMON SUGAR POPCORN

1 cup uncooked popcorn
1/3 c butter
2/3 c white sugar
2 t ground cinnamon
1/2 t salt
1/2 t vanilla extract

Directions
1- Preheat over to 250 degrees.  Pop the popcorn, place in a large mixing bowl, and set aside.
2- Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat.  Stir in cinnamon, sugar, salt, and vanilla, and cook until thick and bubbly.  Pour over the popcorn, and stir until the popcorn is evenly coated. Spread the popcorn into a large roasting pan.
3- Bake in the preheated over for 10 mins, then turn the heat off, and allow the popcorn to stay in the over for 20 more mins.  Remove from the oven, and cool completely before serving.

**If you don't have a popcorn popper, you can do what I do ... use a brown paper lunch bag.  Place 1/3 c popcorn kernels in the paper sack, fold top down twice, and cook for 2 mins or until you no longer hear popping.**
