Thanks, my brother use to make this when we were teens and I loved it :thumbup:

Thanks for the recipe!

Yummy

I love this. I only make it once in a while since you can't quilt eating it. I give it to a friend every year for Christmas. I always have to make her a batch to take to work. They call it popcorn crack since it is so addicting you just can't quit

All are welcome !!!

I enjoy sharing it as much as I do eating it ! LOL
It is very addictive :-D

((((( Hugs )))))

I remember my Mom making this at each Christmas, but she always made the 'sauce' on the stove until it formed a 'soft ball' and she didn't bake it. I will have to try this way, 'cause I sure don't make it her way :)

Haven't made this in years...thanks for posting the recipe...may have to make it soon!

Sounds delicious! Thank you! Would be nice to make at the holidays.
