Ingredients
2
brown paper bags
1/2
cup
uncooked popcorn kernels
We use Orville Redenbacher Corn or even off-brand yellow popping corn.
Popcorn Seasoning
We LOVE Kernel Season's
Popcorn butter topping
We LOVE Orville Redenbacher's
Instructions
Open one brown paper bag, and pour in the cup of kernels.
Using the other brown paper bag, open it up and slide it down on top of the other, creating an enclosed bag for it to pop in.
Place the bag on it's side in the microwave and cook for 3-4 minutes, listening for the kernels to slow down.
NOTE: Each microwave is different and cooking times may vary. We use our popcorn sensing button, and it pops for about 3 minutes.
Remove popcorn from microwave, and gently pull the two bags apart from one another.
Caution: HOT!!
Pour one layer of the popcorn in to a large bowl.
Sprinkle with popcorn seasoning desired
Then drizzle popcorn butter on top
Repeat with another layer of seasoning.
Add another layer of popcorn, and repeat the seasoning process until all of the popcorn has been seasoned.
