meetings and parties, my famous Sweet Potato Pudding
is always requested.”

Christy Hall’s Pam’s Caramel Corn
Walla Walla, Washington, is the home of this Costco
member, whose caramel corn is great freshly popped
and out of this world when placed back in the oven.
Popcorn
2 sticks butter
2 cups packed light brown sugar
1 teaspoon salt
1 cup light corn syrup
1 teaspoon baking soda
1. Pop enough corn to fill a very large bowl 2/3 full.
Sort to remove any unpopped kernels.
2. In a 2-quart saucepan, mix butter, brown sugar, salt
and corn syrup. Cook until boiling and then time it to
boil exactly 4 minutes. Remove from heat and add soda,
stirring thoroughly. Mixture will foam up.
3. Pour syrup over popcorn and mix well. It can be eaten
sticky or baked on a cookie sheet in a slow oven (150-200ºF)
1/2 hour, turning to dry. Makes 12-14 servings.
