Super-Duper Caramel Corn

2 bags of microwave Kettle Corn (about 16 C)
1/2 C butter
1 1/3 C sugar
1/2 C light corn syrup
2 t vanilla
1 C whole almonds
1 C pecan halves
1 C milk chocolate chips
1 C white chocolate chips


Pop your popcorn.  Then, in a saucepan mix the butter, sugar, corn syrup, & vanilla.  Cook on medium to medium-high heat until the mixture reaches 228-232 F on your candy thermometer.  In a BIG bowl, mix together the popcorn, candy mixture, & nuts.  Be careful, it’s hot!.  Then, spread it out over a greased cookie sheet to let it harden.  Finally, top it all off with a generous drizzling of milk & white chocolate.
