With busy schedules, activities and day-to-day tasks, family time can be difficult to come by – but not impossible. Family time is key for kids, helping them to see the value in spending time with those that are important. As for those busy schedules, it is a matter of making it a priority and finding something fun for everyone to enjoy together. One thing my family loves to do is watch movies together – and with the help of Pop Secret Popcorn, it’s fun, easy and delicious to bring the ‘movies’ home.
You can enjoy your popcorn right from the Pop Secret bag or you can go all out and create a popcorn mix and make your own popcorn station. My kids love to do this – and sometimes I’m not sure which they love more, the movie or the popcorn!
I start by making one mixed popcorn and one regular batch – plain butter. For this movie night, I made one bowl of Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Popcorn and one bowl of regular Movie Theatre Butter. The Brown Sugar & Cinnamon Popcorn is SO easy to make – and it’s delicious.
Start by popping a bag or two of Pop Secret Sea Salt – I choose this one since I’ll be adding butter to the popcorn for the recipe, plus the combination of the sweet and salty really makes for a great taste. I shopped for and found the varieties of Pop Secret I needed at Walmart.
Mix 1/2 tbsp of ground cinnamon with 1/2 c. of brown sugar in one bowl and melt 3 tbsp of butter in another.
Add the sugar mixture to the melted butter & mix well. Pour the mixture over the popcorn, little by little, stirring in between. Mix to distribute the topping onto the popcorn. Allow to cool. You can enjoy this as is or add some toppings to it!
I usually have a bowl of Pop Secret Jumbo Pop Movie Theatre Butter for those that like to focus on the toppings, like chocolate chips, nuts and dried fruits.
I have fun serving containers that make it easy for everyone to make their own. This is a great idea for sleepovers, parties and more!
Most important of all, it brings everyone together for a fun, family night. There’s nothing more important!
