Honey Popcorn Recipe

Yesterday was windy. I mean VERY windy. Windy enough that the kids and I decided we’d rather stay home and have a movie day than venture out. And what goes better with a movie that popcorn? And not just any popcorn; but honey popcorn. Yum! This is one of those childhood recipes I remember having often. I mostly remember it from family gatherings on Sunday and Monday nights. It is now becoming a tradition with my own family.

Honey popcorn:

Melt together until boiling:

  • 1/2 C honey
  • 1 C sugar
  • 1 C Butter

Pour mixture over 2 batches popped popcorn and combine. Make sure you get as many un-popped kernels out before pouring the honey mixture on top. My mom always made the popcorn by popping kernels in a popper, but I take the easy way out and just pop two bags of plain popcorn.

Enjoy this delicious concoction at your next movie night!!
