Popcorn Delight

When I was a little girl we used to sit with our mother and watch T.V. on newyears eve. My mother may of made snacks and treats for us to enjoy that night but I must say one thing we always had was Popcorn. Here is a great recipe to share with your guest tonight.
PopCorn Delight






14 cups popped popcorn
2 cups salted peanuts
2 cups crisp rice cereal
2 cups miniature marshmallows
1 pound white candy coating, coarsely chopped
3 tablespoons creamy Jif® Peanut Butter

In a large bowl, combine the popcorn, peanuts, cereal and marshmallows. In a microwave, melt candy coating and peanut butter; stir until smooth. Pour over popcorn mixture; toss to coat.
Spread onto waxed paper-lined baking sheets; refrigerate for 15 minutes or until set. Break into pieces. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator. Yield: about 6 quarts.

  6. I love making popcorn at home, but I like mine with butter. Sometimes I eat the caramel flavored ones, but I typically don't try other flavors.
