Preparation

Step 1

Preheat oven to 250 degrees. Spray rimmed cookie sheet with oil.
Place popcorn and nuts into very large bowl. In medium saucepan combine the sugar, butter, salt, syrups, and vanilla. Bring to a boil over medium heat-high heat and continue to boil for 5 minutes stirring constantly. Remove from heat and add the baking soda. The mixture will bubble up. Stir vigorously until the mixture is smooth.
Pour the hot syrup over the popcorn mix. Stir until popcorn is coated. This is messy; take your time and use a long handled spoon.
Spread the coated popcorn in the prepared pans. Bake for 1 hour, stirring several times. The mixture will be very sticky.
Remove from oven and allow to cool for 15 minutes. Break big hunks apart while the mixture is cooling. When cooled, the sugars will have candy coated the popcorn. Store in large airtight container.
