Honey Popcorn
1/2 c Honey
1/2 c Margarine
6 c Popped popcorn (or more)
1 c Shelled peanuts
Heat honey and margarine in a saucepan until well blended. Cool.
Combine popcorn and peanuts in a large bowl. Pour honey mix over
popcorn, stirring as you pour. When popcorn and peanuts are well
coated, spread in a pan in a single layer. Bake at 350 degrees for 5

The difference between crisp (not brown) and burnt can be a matter of
minutes. Keep in an air tight container.
