Crazy Crunch with nuts
Crazy Crunch plainCourtesy of my dear mother, a wonderful memory from my childhood, and now part of my own children's memories :)
Set aside in a greased bowl-
14 Cups of popped corn
1 1/2 C. mixed nuts
In a large pot on the stove bring to a boil-
1 1.2 C. Sugar
1/2 C. dark Karo syrup
1 1/2 square butter (3/4 Cup)
3 T. water
Boil until hard ball stage (checking in a bowl of ice water, you pour a little into the bowl and can use your fingers to form a solid ball). Remove from heat.
Add 1 tsp. vanilla when it's at hard ball stage.
Pour over popcorn and mix.
Dump out onto greased foil or wax paper to cool.
Enjoy!
