A brown sugar coating lends this munching corn its rich praline taste. Ingredients:
2 cups pecan halves |
3/4 cup firmly packed brown sugar |
3/4 cup maple syrup |
1/2 cup butter |
2 teaspoons vanilla extract |
1 (3-ounce) bag butter-flavored microwave popcorn, popped (12 cups) (we tested with orville redenbacher's smart pop) |
Directions:
1. Place pecans in a large bowl. Set aside. 2. Combine brown sugar, maple syrup, and butter in a small heavy saucepan; bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring often. Reduce heat to medium, and cook 2 minutes, stirring often. Remove from heat, and stir in vanilla. 3. Drizzle sugar mixture over pecans, tossing to coat. Add popcorn, 2 cups at a time, stirring until well coated. 4. Spoon popcorn mixture onto a buttered 15 x 10 jellyroll pan. Bake at 250° for 1 hour, stirring mixture every 15 minutes with a large spoon. Cool completely. Store in an airtight container. |
