This honeyed snack tastes a lot like old-fashioned popcorn balls, but is much easier to make.
Preparation time: 10 minutes
Cooking time: 18 minutes
You Will Need
10 cups air-popped popcorn
1 cup lightly salted dry-roasted mixed nuts
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons butter or margarine
1 teaspoon grated orange rind
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon or nutmeg
What to Do
1. Preheat oven to 350°F. Place popcorn and mixed nuts in a 13" x 9" x 2" baking pan.
2. In a small saucepan, stir together the honey, orange juice, butter, orange rind and cinnamon until well mixed. Bring to a boil over moderate heat. Drizzle the honey mixture over the popcorn and nuts. Using a wooden spoon, toss until well mixed. Bake for 15 minutes, stirring twice.
3. Spread popcorn mixture onto a large sheet of foil. Cool completely. To store, place in a tightly covered container.
