Best movie snack ever!

I'm a reader, I love books and more so I love series. I also love to read books series that become movies. When do I read all these books with my busy life? I read at the gym, while I'm running on an elliptical. It takes my mind off the pain of the workout. I'v read hundreds of books doing this and one series I read was the Divergent series by Veronica Roth. I loved them! I won't give any secrets away, but I cried my eyes out in the gym while reading the last few chapters of the third book. So, being a reader of the series with the movie now out, I had to drag Billy to go see it with me! Long story short, we both really liked it! Its a good movie, but of course, the book is always better!

For our movie date I decided that we needed a fun treat, something sweet and salty to satisfy. With it being a movie date, it had to be popcorn. Salty snack, check! So, how to make it sweet? I ended up making some carmel sauce and chopping up "fun size" snickers and placing them into my popcorn mix, creating, "snickers popcorn." SO GOOD!!!!



1. Preheat oven to 200 degrees
2. Make a bag of popcorn then pour the popped corn into a baking pan.

3. Make your carmel sauce. 1/2 cup brown sugar and 1/4 cup Corn syrup. Boil and stir until light brown. 

4. Pour carmel sauce onto the popcorn.

5. Bake your carmel covered popcorn for 45 minutes. 

6. While popcorn is baking chop up some snickers. I used 6 "fun size" snickers. 

7.Once your carmel popcorn is baked, remove from oven and stir in the snickers. Chocolate will spread around your popcorn and the snickers chunks will collect popcorn making a delightful snack!

8. Place popcorn mix in a bag and go enjoy your movie!

Billy and I loved this snack!
