Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup popcorn kernels
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- 3 tablespoons butter
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup mini pretzel twists
- 0.75 cup chocolate candies (e.g., M&Ms)
- 2 tablespoons caramel sauce
- 0.5 cup roasted peanuts
- 1 cup marshmallows
Instructions
In a large pot with a lid, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Add the popcorn kernels to the pot and cover with the lid. Shake the pot occasionally to ensure even popping.
Continue cooking until the popping slows to about 2-3 seconds between pops, then remove the pot from the heat.
Melt the butter in the microwave or over low heat on the stove and drizzle it over the freshly popped popcorn.
Sprinkle the salt over the popcorn and toss well to coat evenly.
Transfer the popcorn to a large mixing bowl and let it cool slightly.
Add the mini pretzel twists, chocolate candies, roasted peanuts, and marshmallows to the bowl of popcorn.
Drizzle the caramel sauce over the mixture and gently toss everything together until evenly mixed.
Serve immediately or store in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
