Things We Find Pinteresting #26


I tried to think of a theme for this linky party this week and was kind of coming up with a blank, but it has been so cold around here lately all I want to do is curl up under a blanket, turn on an old movie and pull out the popcorn bowl.  So there you have it!  POPCORN!  Link up your favorite popcorn recipe post, pin, board or your Pinterest account.

Mother Goose Popcorn

This is a childhood favorite, introduced to me by my grandmother.  She made this popcorn every Christmas.  Soon we made it throughout the year, changing the color and flavors for different holidays.  I changed it up by drizzling chocolate (milk and white) over the top.  It tasted great!


RECIPE

1 cup sugar
2 Tbsp water
2 Tbsp butter
dash salt
1 1/2 tsp desired flavoring
Food coloring
Popcorn


Ingredients

Mix sugar, water, butter & salt.

Bring ingredients to a boil.

When it reaches the soft ball stage, remove from heat.

Add flavoring and a few drops of desired food coloring.


Pour over popcorn and stir until it becomes sugary and cold.


Drizzle with chocolate (if desired).


Voilà!  Yummy popcorn, great for gift-giving!
