Popcorn!

Last week I was asked what my ideal Mother's Day activity would be. My answer was a movie night with my husband and son. On Mother's Day I would love to just watch a movie in bed with my boys while enjoying popcorn and M&M's. And a diet pepsi in reasonable reach, of course. My answer became my inspiration for today's post and I'm really excited to share! I LOVE a yummy popcorn treat, especially while watching a movie. I've found a whole bunch of yummy sweet popcorn recipes that are sure to please. Any one of these would be perfect for a movie night with the boys. I can't wait to try more of these!

Popcorn Poppers @ Chicago Parent

I wanted to start with these lovely little poppers because they combine the two treats for my ideal Mother's Day activity: popcorn and M&M's. I've yet to make these, but I'm so excited for our next movie night so we can test them out!

Candied Popcorn @ A Mom Not a Professional Nor a Perfectionist

This popcorn treat would not only be perfect for a movie night, but also for a party! I would love to try making this for a birthday party or some other celebration. And it looks so easy to do!

Snickers Popcorn @ Cookies & Cups

The first of two candy bar popcorn recipes! Happy day!

Twix Caramel Popcorn @ Two Peas and Their Pod

Soft and Chewy Caramel Corn @ Country Cooks Across America

I love a good soft and chewy caramel corn. I don't even need to test this to know that it's going to be good! Look at the caramely goodness!

Cinnamon Bear Popcorn @ Jamie Cookies It Up!

My mom is a HUGE cinnamon bear fan. I have a feeling she would love this popcorn!

Party Popcorn @ She Wears Many Hats

Doesn't this popcorn make you want to have a party? I guess that's why they call it party popcorn! It's easy to make and even easier to eat the whole dang bowl. Trust me.

Salted Caramel Almond Pretzel Popcorn @ Everybody Likes Sandwiches

I've always loved the combination of salty and sweet. This popcorn recipe does that twice over when popcorn and pretzels collide with marshmallows! Love!

Moose Munch @ Something Swanky: Desserts and Designs

This is a crunchy caramel corn with bits of chocolate here and there. I could munch on this Moose Munch all day!

Cinnamon Cookie Crunch Popcorn @ Our Best Bites

This is one of those popcorn treats that makes me want to shout for joy. Oreos, Red Hot candies, white and semi-sweet chocolate, and popcorn all thrown together into one bowl? Really? I know that dreams are a wish your heart makes, but according to Cinderella they only happen when you're asleep. Apparently this dream is coming true and I couldn't be happier! Count me in for a taste test!
