Cinnamon-y Popcorn

Looking for something different from the usual Caramel Corn? This is a totally scrumptious alternative- crunchy, sweet, and cinnamon-y goodness. You really can't go wrong!

Ingredients:
3 quarts popped popcorn
1/2 cup butter or margarine
2/3 cup sugar
1 T cinnamon

Directions:
Measure popcorn on a large jelly roll sheet

In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the butter, sugar, and cinnamon. Microwave on high for 1 minute; stir. Microwave 1 minute longer or until the butter is melted; stir. When well blended, pour over popcorn and toss to coat.

Bake, uncovered, at 300 degrees F for 10 minutes. Cool. Store in an airtight container; or just eat it!

Also try melting some white chocolate baking chips and drizzle over the cooled popcorn. Delicious!!!
