Instructions

1. Pop the corn, then pick out the fluffy popped pieces and discard any hard or unpopped kernels. Put the fluffy corn and the nuts into a very large bowl.
2. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and preheat the oven to 250°F.
3. In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, both sugars, salt, water and any optional flavorings. Bring to a boil over medium heat and boil for 5 minutes until thickened, stirring often; the mixture will bubble up a lot.
4. Take off the heat and stir in the vanilla and baking soda.
5. Quickly pour the caramel over the popcorn and nuts and toss with a large spoon until fairly evenly coated.
6. Spread the coated mixture on the baking sheet and bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.
7. Cool completely, then store in airtight containers.
