12 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 to 2/3 cups unpopped)
Nonstick cooking spray
1-1/2 cups mixed salted nuts
1 cup packed brown sugar
3/4 cup butter
1/2 cup dark-colored corn syrup

. Remove all unpopped kernels from popcorn. Lightly coat a roasting pan with nonstick cooking spray. Combine popcorn and nuts in the prepared pan; keep warm in 300 degree F oven.

3. Pour caramel mixture over popcorn-nut mixture in prepared pan; stir gently to coat.
4. Bake in a 300 degree F oven for 15 minutes. Stir popcorn mixture. Bake for 5 minutes more. Remove from oven. Spread on a large piece of foil to cool. Break apart to serve. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week. Makes about 15 cups mixture (thirty, 1/2-cup servings).
