Yield: 8 servings

Ingredients:

  • 16 cups air-popped popcorn, unsalted
  • 1/2 cup candy corn
  • 1/2 cup orange, brown, and yellow candy pieces filled with peanut butter

Directions:

  1. Wash hands with soap and water.
  2. Prepare popcorn according to the air popper directions.
  3. Add about 1/4 of the popcorn to a large bowl. Sprinkle about 1/4 of the candy on top of popcorn. Repeat layering of ingredients since mixing causes candy to fall to bottom of bowl.
  4. Serve with a scoop from a large bowl or fill a self-closing plastic bag with 2 cups of mixture for each person to enjoy.
Notes: 
  • 1/2 cup of unpopped kernels equals 16 cups of popped popcorn.
  • Prepare popcorn in a microwave according to package directions or on top of the stove.
  • Add raisins, other dried fruit, nuts, gummy worms, or other orange and black candies.
