    I made a huge bowl of this for six hungry teenage boys who were watching a movie - it went down a treat. They even asked for more. I don't have a microwave, so I made the popcorn in a non-stick shallow pan with a lid of course!! It took a lot longer to cook, but was just as nice.

    Oh boy ~ this is GOOOOD! I don't recommend that you make it though as you will be in danger of eating the lot all by yourself!! :oD Quick, simple and tasty (but very sweet and SOOO bad for you!).

    Just made this, sooo good. Definitely our new weekend treat. I also made the popcorn in a pan, just followed the instructions on the back of the popcorn packet.
