Now I am about to share my ultimate, favorite recipe for a sweet & salty snack...I think the people at Old Dutch called it something like..."Popcorn Twist Caramel Corn"....but I simply call it....


Caramel Corn Crack
Preheat oven to 250 degrees F. Pour 1 bag popcorn twists (large blue bag) in large roaster.

Then, in large pot - heat the following -
1 cup butter (not margarine)
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup corn syrup

Heat to bubbling, and then let bubble slowly for 1 minute. Take off heat and add 1/2 tsp. baking soda. Mixture will foam up. Pour mixture over popcorn twists and stir until all popcorn twists are coated.

Bake in oven for 45 minutes, (if you want it softer, bake 30 minutes) stirring every 10 minutes. When finished, spread on two large cookie sheets, cool, and break apart. Now see how long this will last in your house ~ I dare ya!!! I bag mine in ziplocs and freeze with good intentions, but clearly nothing short of a lock on the freezer will save this stuff!!!

This is a hit at my house, whenever I can get around to making these!!!!  They will knock your socks off!!!!


Toffee Tarts
Shells
· ¼ c brown sugar
· 2 c flour
· 1 c softened butter
· pinch of salt

Mix well and press ~ 1 tsp in the bottom of mini-muffin or mini-tart pan as thin as possible. Bake at 350F for 10-12 minutes (until starting to brown on edges). Cool for a minute in the pan then move to cooling racks. If you wanna go all homemade, definitely use this recipe - otherwise buy pre-made tart shells in the frozen section of your grocery store if you are in a rush...which I usually am!!!!)

Filling
· 5 boxes of Macintosh Toffee (or two bags of individual toffees - but then you have to unwrap each one - yeash!!!!)
· ½ c evap. Milk
· 1 tbsp butter

Melt down, stirring constantly over medium heat and fill tart shells – I use a turkey baster to do this – it makes life considerably easier than trying to use a spoon! Look out calories cause here they come!!! These are simply delish!!!!!
