Level up that bag of microwave popcorn with this unbelievably simple trick, and movie night will never be the same! Melt peanut butter and honey into a mouthwatering mix before oozing it over your late-night snack. After each kernel is coated, sprinkle with a dash of salt for an ultimate salty-sweet treat. Looking for a little extra texture? Spread the peanut butter popcorn on a sheet pan and bake. This step completes the snack trifecta of sweet, salt and crunch.
