My Favorite Popcorn Recipe (or at least one of them)


I don't even know what the name of this is.  It's a healthy version of a Cracker-Jack type of popcorn (does just saying the name take your mind back like it does mine? Ah, nostalgia. . .), but this is a good, no-guilt, healthy version.  Super easy and delicious!


Here's the recipe for the no-name popcorn:


Pop 3 batches (1/2 cups) of popcorn


Topping:
1/4 C. peanut butter
1/4 C. honey
2 T. blackstrap molasses  (don't use the other kind of molasses, it really loses something)


Melt the topping ingredients in a small pan on the stove, then pour over the popcorn, and mix well.  The original recipe, as I recall had you then spread it on a cookie sheet and bake at a lower temperature, stirring every few minutes to kind of dry it out, but I found that if it just sits for a bit, it dries out any way, and really isn't very messy.
