Ingredients:

12 cups of popcorn (1 batch of airpop popcorn sprayed with cooking spray and salted)

1/2 butter

1/4 corn syrup

1 1/4 c Red Hot Candies

Instructions:

  1. preheat oven 250, spray cookie sheet with cooking spray
  2. In a saucepan, combine butter, corn syrup, and red hots, boil for 5 minutes
  3. ACT QUICKLY & CAREFULLY as the syrup is VERY HOT but hardens quickly
    Place 1/2 of popcorn in extra large glass bowl, pour half of hot syrup over popcorn, pour rest of popcorn into bowl, pour in rest of hot syrup
    Stir with a metal spoon to coat as much popcorn as possible, it’s okay if not perfectly coated
  4. Dump coated popcorn onto cookie sheet
  5. Bake for 1 hour, stirring every 15 minutes
  6. Remove from oven and break up any clumps of popcorn while cooling
  7. Enjoy!

I hope you enjoy this recipe as much as I did. I’m sure I’ll be making it again soon.
