1/2 cup Butter or margarine
1 cup Granulated sugar
1/4 cup Light corn syrup
1/4 tsp. Salt

Preheat oven to 250°F. Melt butter in medium saucepan. Stir in sugar, corn syrup and salt. Heat to a boil, stirring constantly. Boil for 8 minutes, stirring only once, over lowest heat possible to maintain a boil. Remove from heat; stir in soda, vanilla and butter extract, if desired. Gradually pour over popped pop corn and nuts, mixing well. Turn into a large, shallow baking pan. Bake for 30 minutes, mixing well after 15 minutes. Allow to cool completely on foil. Break apart and store in tightly covered container.
