Notes

    • If you want your popcorn extra sweet, you can double the butter, sugar, cinnamon glaze.
    • Don't want to use the stove? You can melt the butter, sugar, cinnamon mixture in a bowl in the microwave.
    • Feeding a crowd? This makes about 8 cups of popcorn. You can easily double the whole recipe if you have more people to serve or want leftovers.
    • Use your favorite popcorn. If you don't like butter flavor, use plain popcorn.
    • Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 5 days.
