Praline Popcorn Balls!

We got this idea from one of our Facebook followers whose neighbor used to hand out Praline Popcorn Balls on Halloween! 

PRALINE BUTTER-PECAN CRUNCH POPCORN RECIPE

INGREDIENTS:

• 8 cups popped popcorn
• 1/2 cup unsalted butter
• 1/4 cup honey or agave
• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 8 oz pecan peices
• 1 cup New Orleans Famous Pralines Original (crumbled)

DIRECTIONS:

• Set oven to 325 degrees.
• In a medium saucepan, combine butter, honey and brown sugar; cook, and stir over medium heat until mixture comes to a full boil.
• Stir in baking soda (the mixture will foam).
• In a large bowl, combine popcorn, nuts, and New Orleans Famous Pralines. 
• Pour in the hot syrup; mix well to coat.
• Spread mixture evenly on a large buttered cookie sheet.
• Bake, until a deep golden brown (about 15 minutes), stirring every 5 minutes.
• Cool, and store in a tightly covered container for up to 4 days.

What a genius way to incorporate a little New Orleans French Quarter into your neighborhood this Halloween! Nothing screams witches and ghosts like New Orleans! Fortunately, our pralines are a treat and not a trick!
