Yummy Peanut Butter Popcorn

This is another one of my mom’s recipes! She has the best ones. I don’t know the original source, but the recipe is simple and delicious.

 

INGREDIENTS and DIRECTIONS:

• 3 Quarts of popped popcorn–set aside in a large bowl–(I use 94% fat free microwave popcorn, about 2 1/2 bags of the 77 grams size)
• SCREEN FOR UNPOPPED KERNELS! (They are hard on the teeth)
• Then add to a saucepan:
• 1 cup of sugar
• 1/2 cup of honey
• 1/2 cup of corn syrup
• Bring to a boil these three ingredients, and boil hard for two minutes.
• Remove from stove.

Add in:

1 cup of peanut butter

1 tsp. of vanilla

Stir till blended and smooth.

Pour over popcorn and stir till all coated.

Then spread it out on sheets of waxed paper or foil to cool down.

That’s it! So easy and so yummy!
