POPPYCOCK POPCORN

Quite yummy, and a very close copy cat o Poppycock brand candied corn. This recipe is versatile, in that you can add whatever you like to it, whereas the name brand just has what it has (no selection of flavors). It makes up as a wonderful gift for Superbowl or for the holidays. It would even be a great hostess gift for a movie...

  • Add milk or yogurt for a thinner consistency: If you prefer a thinner poppycock, you can add some milk or yogurt. Start with a small amount and add more until you reach the desired consistency.
  • Sweeten to taste: If you find your poppycock is not sweet enough, you can add some honey, maple syrup, or sugar to taste.
  • Garnish with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings for poppycock include chopped nuts, seeds, granola, or fruit.
