    Recipe Introduction


    Posted by: Rachael_from_IN

    List of Ingredients




    1 (3.5-ounce) bag plain or butter-flavored microwave popcorn
    2 cups apple-cinnamon-flavored cereal rings
    1/2 cup chopped dried apples
    1 (14-ounce) package caramels, about 48, unwrapped
    2 tablespoons water
    2 tablespoons butter or margarine
    1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
    8 non-toxic wooden craft sticks

    Recipe



    Pop popcorn according to package directions. Carefully open bag and pour 6 cups popcorn into a large bowl; discard unpopped kernels. Enjoy remaining popcorn separately. Add cereal and dried apples to bowl with popcorn.

    In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave the caramels, water and butter, uncovered, on HIGH (100% power) for 2-1/2 to 3 minutes, or until melted and smooth, stirring every minute. Mix in the cinnamon then pour over the popcorn mixture; stir until evenly coated. Let cool for 5 minutes.

    With lightly buttered hands, shape mixture into balls around each craft stick. Place on lightly buttered wax paper to set and cool.


    TIP: Feel free to decorate these with seasonal candies and sprinkles then wrap each in plastic or cellophane wrap and tie with a ribbon for fun treats.
