BUTTER TOFFEE POPCORN WITH PEANUTS



Butter Toffee Popcorn with Peanuts image

A great "I Can't Quit Eating This!" snack ready in 10 minutes or less! For those who prefer more of a butter toffee taste for their caramel corn. I tweaked the usual microwave caramel corn recipe so it wouldn't have that Cracker Jack -almost-burned taste. For those who prefer that taste, microwave the popcorn/peanut mix for one more minute.
