Sweet Almond Popcorn

This super simple and yummy recipe is the perfect ending to a delicious meal, especially in autumn - but who's kidding who, popcorn is awesome any time of year! The cinnamon and warmth of the butter mixed with brown sugar will make you want to crawl by the fireplace/ t.v. yule log to eat it. Each bite will remind you of the best things in life. Enjoy!

Ingredients:

2 bags of plain microwaveable popcorn/ equivalent home-made amount of popcorn
1/4 cup of almond slivers
1 tablespoon of good quality chocolate powder
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1/2 cup of brown sugar
2 tablespoons of butter

Preparation:

1. Cook microwave popcorn according to direction on package, or prepare your own on the stovetop.

2. Spread the popcorn on a half sheet pan and sprinkle the chocolate, cinnamon and almonds over it. Give it a side shake/shimmy to ensure all the popcorn gets covered.

3. To a small nonstick pan over medium-low heat, add the butter and sugar. Once the butter has melted with sugar, drizzle it over the popcorn. Let it cool and serve.
