Shameful. That I would dare to post something
that calls for a mere two ingredients neither of which
are organic or from any discernible food group.
Nevertheless surely by now, a whoppin' two posts later,
you have come to realize that if you want
real recipes that will both amaze and delight you have to visit
another blog.

However, I have found that if you melt some chocolate bark
and cover pretzel bites with peanut butter centers it makes
for a darn good, can't stop at one treat.

Welcome to the new Recipe Club blog!
We have had to identify our lowly blog as Recipe Club Texas
because someone else has already staked their claim on
plain ol' Recipe Club.

Of course I had to kick it off with a photo!
This is a good representation of our group -
give or take a few. You will recall we were at
Claudia's and the theme was
Homemade Christmas.

Here is the recipe for Grandma Jo's caramel corn -
delicious any time of the year!

15 cups popped popcorn (3 bags)
1 cup packed brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
1/4 cup light corn syrup
1/2 tsp salt and 1/2 tsp baking soda

Heat oven to 200.
Heat brown sugar, butter, corn syrup and salt over medium high heat
stirring frequently for 5 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in baking soda.
Coat popcorn well with caramel.
Bake for 1 hour stirring every 15 minutes or so.
Doubling the caramel works even better!

Helpful hint - Place the popped corn in a brown grocery
bag and then pour the caramel. This allows you to shake
to cover and not stir.
