Cinnamon Bear Popcorn


This recipe has been a family favorite for years.  I got it from a church cookbook that my mom has.  I have changed it a little to meet my tastes. 

Cinnamon Bear Popcorn

3 Bags Popped Popcorn
4 Cups Mini Marshmallows
1 Bag of Cinnamon Bears (cut in pieces)
2 Cubes Butter
1 1/3 Cup Sugar
½ Cup Karo Syrup
1 tsp. Vanilla
3 Drops red food coloring

Line 3 cookie sheets with parchment paper.  Pop the popcorn and divide it over the cookie sheets.  Add about 1 1/3 cup of mini marshmallows onto each sheet.  Cut up the cinnamon bears and divide them among the popcorn. In a saucepan combine butter, Karo syrup, and sugar.   Heat to a boil on medium heat, stirring continuously.  Turn heat to low and simmer for 5 minutes.  Add vanilla and food coloring.  Pour the HOT sugar mixture over the popcorn.  Carefully stir.  The heat will melt the marshmallows and make everything gooey and delicious.
