Warning! This caramel cashew popcorn is totally addictive! Popcorn mixed with cashews gets an extra crunch from a sweet caramel glaze. Great for movie night, slumber parties or those midnight munchies!

Ingredients
- 10 cups popped popcorn
- 1 ½ cups cashews coarsely chopped (I buy the halves & pieces)
- 1 cup light brown sugar packed
- ½ cup butter
- ¼ tsp. salt
- ¼ cup water
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 300 degrees. Spray 2 large rimmed cookie sheets with non-stick cooking spray.
- Pop popcorn or purchase already popped. I found mine, at a great price, at my grocery store deli. Pour into a large bowl and add nuts.
- Mix brown sugar, butter, salt and water in a small saucepan. Place over medium heat and bring to a boil while stirring constantly. Pour over popcorn-nut mixture and stir to coat well.
- Spread out on prepared cookie sheets. Bake for 20 minutes, mix well, then bake for another 20 minutes. Remove from oven and place on wax paper to cool.
- Store in an airtight container.
