Peanut Butter and Honey Popcorn

*Horrible picture, I know.. But I didn't have my camera on me at the time and was forced to use my laptop's webcam :S.. will update with a better picture when I make this again!

Make your own version of caramel corn right in your own home in under half an hour! This popcorn is an addicting, decadent treat for your next movie night. The peanut butter and honey combination give it a great flavour that is not what you'd expect in your traditional caramel corn, plus there is no corn syrup involved!

Ingredients:

8 cups popped popcorn - You can pop your own using an air popper or use 2 bags of plain microwave popcorn
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 tsp. vanilla

Directions:

Place the popcorn in a large bowl. In a small saucepan, combing the sugar and honey over medium heat. Bring to a rolling boil. Remove from heat and stir in the peanut butter until smooth. Stir in the vanilla. 

Pour the peanut butter syrup over the popcorn and stir with a large spoon or spatula until evenly coated. Be careful and don't use your hands to mix unless you have rubber gloves on because it is incredibly hot! Line a cookie sheet with wax paper and spread the coated popcorn out evenly onto it.

Allow the popcorn to cool for 5-10 minutes (you can speed this up by putting the sheet into the fridge). Break up the cooled popcorn into smaller chunks then place into a large bowl and enjoy!
