Cinnamon Heart Popcorn

As gifts this year I'm making Cinnamon Heart Popcorn.... to die for. Ate so much of "samples" I'm sick, sort of.... the Cinnamon counter acts the felling of yuck.....but fun easy recipe and LOOK out Knoxville I plan to buy every Cinnamon Heart candy in 2 zip codes. Today I collected 17 packs in all. People are doubting my motives.Today  I'm suffering from a Cinnamon Heart Popcorn hang over. My tounge is numb.  Oh Cinnamon Heart Popcorn....you are a slave driver and a punishing lover. Yet I have have produced enough of you to "cover" teacher gifts for 2 kids. Now for family and friends....more red Hot Candy pls. I've made enough that I've used over 10 pounds of unpopped corn, which is a hell of a lot of popcorn.

 

I can now make Cinnamon Heart Popcorn is my sleep. If I slept that is....and you can too.

 

Cinnamon Heart Popcorn

 

 

1 1/2 cups cinnamon red hot candies
8 cups popped plain popcorn (not flavored)
1 cup light corn syrup
1 cup butter

1. Preheat oven to 250 degrees F (120 degrees C). Line baking sheets with parchment paper.

2. Combine butter, corn syrup, and cinnamon candies in a bowl over medium heat. Bring to a boil, and cook for 5 minutes. Pour the syrup over the popcorn in a large, heatproof bowl, and stir to cover the popcorn as evenly as possible. Spread the popcorn out onto the prepared baking sheets.

3. Bake in the preheated oven until the candy coating is set, about 30 minutes. Do not burn! Check often as it will burn on you and stink up your whole house!

 

And eat until you are ill. It's the only way.
