Great Popcorn Snack For Football

What do we want??? a Touchdown, What do we need??? a Touchdown, T-O-U-C-H-D-O-W-N!!!!

Yep that is right Its foot ball season, perfect time to cheer your team on and watch the games. I love to snack at the games no matter if they are home high school football games, college games, or professional football games. Do you like football as well???

Whether you like football or not you very well may like this popcorn snack and share it with a friend as well. Football and popcorn go hand in hand to me. In the past years I would stand in line and purchase my own snacks at the snack stand. While, I still support the groups selling by giving my children and grand-children money I have started bringing along my own snacks. 

 

 

8 cups plain popcorn (we use air-popped popcorn)
Fine salt
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup granulated sugar
1/2 cup natural peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1/2 cup milk chocolate chips, melted
1 1/2 cups Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
 

1. Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl and salt to taste. Set aside. 
2. Mix the honey and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Let it simmer for about 2 minutes, then remove from the heat and add the peanut butter. Stir vigorously until all the peanut butter is melted, then mix in the vanilla extract.
3. Immediately pour the peanut butter caramel over the popcorn and gently stir with a long-handled wooden spoon until it's all coated. Spread popcorn on a large baking sheet. Drizzle popcorn with melted chocolate and let sit until chocolate hardens. Stir in the Mini Reese'sPeanut Butter Cups.
Notes:
We used air-popped popcorn, but you can use microwave popcorn or stove-top popcorn. If you can't find Mini Reese's Peanut Butter Cups, you can chop up regular Peanut Butter Cups.
