Merry Crunchmix Popcorn Recipe

I have a super fun, easy to alter recipe to create some Holiday Crunch that the whole family can enjoy! The recipe was originally created by Kraft (who also has a ton of other great recipes there they want you to know about) and altered a bit to what I had here at home.

1) My family version

2) Original Merry CrunchMix Recipe Ingredients here:

Instructions are about the same regardless.

HEAT oven to 300°F.

LINE 15x10x1-inch pan with foil or waxed paper. Combine popcorn, pretzels and nuts (or if you are using my version, popcorn, marshmallows, walnuts and white chocolate chips)

COOK butter and syrup in saucepan on low heat until butter is melted. Add sugar and dry gelatin mix; cook and stir 2 min. or until gelatin is completely dissolved. Bring to boil on medium heat; simmer on low heat 5 min. Pour over popcorn mixture; toss to evenly coat. Add to prepared pan; use 2 forks to spread into even layer. Sprinkle on a few more marshmallows (My version)

BAKE 10 min.; cool. Break into small pieces.
