DELICIOUS POPCORN CRUNCH



Delicious Popcorn Crunch image

Popcorn and candy in a candy sauce. Great for the holidays! Not too chewy and won't stick to your teeth (unless you overcook the sauce)! You can customize the candy, dried fruit, and nuts to what you like. Canadian Smarties® can be used instead of M&M's®. I've known people to press the mixture into a cake pan and cut pieces, too.

CARAMEL CRUNCH POPCORN



Caramel Crunch Popcorn image

In this recipe, a little caramel flavor goes a long way. Although the serving size is small, there's plenty of satisfying sweet taste and crunchy texture. This recipe makes a big batch and can be stored in an airtight continer and kept for about 1 week. I got this recipe off the American Diabetes Association website.
