A friend shared this fast-to-fix recipe with me and I've been making gift batches ever since. It's a perfect family snack when snuggling up to watch classic Christmas movies together!

Place popcorn in a large bowl and set aside. In a heavy saucepan, combine sugar and honey; bring to a boil over medium heat; stirring constantly. Boil for 5 minutes, stirring constantly. Remove from the heat. Add peanut butter; stir until blended.
Pour over popcorn mixture; toss gently to coat. Cool completely on waxed paper. Store in airtight containers or plastic bags.

This is an easy recipe to prepare, and the flavor on peanut butter and honey is a favorite. I too had the experience of previous reviews with the popcorn being chewy. I'll admit that I did not boil the mixture for 5 minutes, so will try again.

Love making this for family movie night. A tip is to spray the waxed paper so the popcorn comes off easier. One viewer said it was chewy. Mine was not. The trick is to boil the mixture for 5 minutes.

I like the way you can taste the honey and PB in this popcorn. I'll be making it again!

This is definitely a very easy recipe, and the kids enjoyed it. But, it was very, very chewy. Almost like taffy. That's not bad if you like chewy, but that's not my thing. I don't have any interest in taffy either. :-)

I think the recipe is easy to follow but personally I don't like chewy popcorn. The flavor is good though and my kids like it.
