Kicking off a full 2 weeks of post with this Cinnamon Caramel Corn. It was really good, but when you put it in the airtight container it got really chewy. Not 100% sure I’ll make it again, but it’s worth a try the flavor is really good. I ended up leaving this one out of my Christmas gift baskets. Lots of better post to come I promise!

Spread popcorn mixture onto a foil-lined jelly roll pan. Place in oven and bake for 30 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes.

Remove from oven and spread out on a large piece of parchment, waxed paper, or foil.

Melt almond bark according to package instructions. Drizzle over popcorn mixture. When almond bark is hardened and popcorn is cool, break into chunks and enjoy! (I left off the almond bark)
