I like to make this for football parties or for any casual get togethers. It turns out great every time! Make it ahead of time and put it in zip-lock bags to keep fresh and crunchy. Ingredients:
18 cups popped popcorn, use light butter microwave popcorn |
1 cup salted peanuts, could also use honey roasted instead |
1/2 cup butter |
3/4 cup brown sugar |
1/4 cup molasses |
Directions:
1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Pop the popcorn and distribute it evenly between 2 large baking sheets with rims.
3. Divide the peanuts in half and sprinkle on top of the popcorn.
4. In a heavy saucepan melt butter over medium heat. Stir in brown sugar and molasses.
5. Bring to a boil and boil for 5 minutes.
6. Remove from heat and drizzle over the 2 sheets of popcorn, distributing it as evenly as possible.
7. Bake in oven for 15 minutes, gently turning the popcorn with a large spatula every 3 minutes.
8. As it bakes, the caramel will melt and cover the popcorn evenly.
