Peanut Butter-White Chocolate Popcorn
Peanut Butter-White Chocolate Popcorn
6 cups salted popcorn
1 cup cocktail peanuts
1 cup red and green candy-coated chocolate pieces
½ cup peanut butter chips
¾ cup sugar
¾ cup light corn syrup
⅛ t. salt
¼ cup creamy peanut butter
4 oz. white chocolate, chopped
Line baking sheet with foil; spray with cooking spray. Combine popcorn, peanuts, candy-coated chocolate pieces and peanut butter chips in a large bowl. Heat sugar, corn syrup and salt in a saucepan over medium heat while stirring until sugar dissolves and mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat. Whisk in peanut butter. Let cool 5 minutes. Whisk in white chocolate until chocolate is melted. Pour over popcorn mixture, quickly stirring to coat. Place on baking sheet, using two forks to spread mixture over the foil. Refrigerate 30 minutes. Break into pieces. Fill cellophane bags for gift-giving. Makes 11 cups.
