My mother gave me this recipe, and it has been a bake sale and holiday favorite ever since, relates Teresa Lerret from Vacaville, California. Kids and adults love the caramel popcorn taste. For faster preparation, use microwave popcorn, she suggests.
Ingredients:
1 package (16 ounces) miniature marshmallows
20 caramels
1/4 cup butter, cubed
10 cups popped popcorn
1-1/2 cups salted peanuts
1 cup red, white and blue m&m's® brand chocolate candies
Directions:
1. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the marshmallows, caramels and butter. Microwave, uncovered, on high for 3 minutes or until melted, stirring occasionally. Place the popcorn in a large bowl; pour caramel mixture over popcorn and mix well.
2. Stir in peanuts and M&M's. Press into a well-greased 10-in. tube pan. Cool until firm. Remove from pan; cut with a serrated knife. Yield: 16-18 servings.
