Chewy Popcorn Bars

ingredients
2 mini bags (1.2 oz each) Orville Redenbacher's Smart Pop! Gourmet
Popping Corn
PAM Original No-Stick Cooking Spray
2 cups quick-cooking rolled oats
1 cup sweetened dried cranberries or raisins
1 cup dry roasted peanuts
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
1 cup honey

directions

1. Preheat oven to 300F. Pop corn according to directions on package
(yield about 8 cups). Remove all unpopped kernels.
2. Spray 13 x 9-inch baking pan with cooking spray. Pour popped corn
into pan; top with oats, cranberries, and peanuts.
3. Combine brown sugar and honey in medium saucepan. Cook on
medium-high heat for 6 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until
mixture comes to full boil and sugar is dissolved. Pour syrup over
popcorn mixture. Carefully toss using two large spoons until mixture
is evenly coated with syrup.
4. Bake 20 minutes stirring once midway through baking. Remove from
oven; lightly press popcorn evenly in pan. Cool on rack about 2 hours
or until set. Cut into 24 bars. Store leftovers in tightly sealed
container.
