Churro Popcorn

Sweet and Satisfying and a great recipe to celebrate National Popcorn Day!

Equipment

  • Air-popper (optional)

Ingredients

  • 8 cups popped plain or lightly salted popcorn
  • ½ cup butter chopped into chunks
  • cup light brown sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

For Churro Coating

  • ½ cup powdered sugar
  • ¼ cup granulated sugar
  • 2 tsp ground cinnamon
  • ¾ cup white chocolate chips

Instructions

  • Mix the churro coating ingredients together in a small bowl and set aside
  • Place the butter, brown sugar, cinnamon and vanilla extract into a small saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring often, until the butter melts and sugar dissolves.
    Pour the butter-sugar mixture over the popcorn and toss together, so that most of the popcorn is coated.
