recipe reviews for:

Lip-smacking Popcorn Concoction

“This is an easy and extremely tasty recipe! Every time I make this, I have people lined up to get the recipe! Cereal, corn chips, pretzels and nuts are coated with a vanilla confectioner's coating (also known as almond bark). This recipe makes a LOT - enough to fill an entire punch bowl and then some! Great for get-togethers”

good recipe! I popped my own popcorn instead of using the microwave kind. And I used peanuts instead of almonds. Very versatile recipe!

I made this for my family to munch on at Christmas. I initially did not like the combination of flavors at all but thought I would wait to see what everyone else thought. Out of 13 people only one liked it so I sent it home with her. I don't recommend this one,

The concept of this recipe is great. It's very addicting! This recipe would have made too much, so I revised it.... 1 bag of popcorn 2 cups of pretzel sticks 1 cup of salted peanuts 1 cup of peanut butter m&m's 1/2 cup of chocolate m&m's 2 cups of rice chex 1/2 package of white almond bark I also used a brown paper bag to mix it all. Very easy. Will make again!

This recipe is delicious. The only thing I did different was substituting red and green peanut M&M's for the slivered almonds as I was making it for Christmas and thought it would look more festive. I also melted my chocolate in a double boiler...just my own preference. It's a wonderful combination of sweet, salty and crunchy! Love it!

So addicting! I wasn't sure about the corn chips, but they were very good in the mix. I've tried this twice. Once following the recipe, and the second time I used popcorn, pretzels, cheerios, chex cereal and peanuts. Both ways were delicious.

So simple, yet so good! I made this to take along on a family outing. It makes a lot but went quickly! I left out the corn chips, as per others' suggestions, and glad I did. I added craisins and white chocolate bits, and may add a little more pretzel and a little less cereal next time. I will definitely be making this again, very soon!

Made for a Labor Day cookout and it was devoured by the adults before the kids could even get their hands on it - and before dinner was served! It is a keeper. I did not have the cereal on hand, so just used the fritos, pretzels, peanuts, and popcorn. This could easily be adapted to anyones tastes and is YUM!

This was tasty and even though I had a ridiculous amount, it all got eaten. I used half vanilla & half dark chocolate flavored conf. coating. The only thing I would change would be to omit the Fritos...they were an odd texture & flavor.

This was really good. I took it to a scrapbook party, and everyone asked me for the recipe. I toasted the almonds to bring out their flavor. I used a turkey roasting pan to stir everything in and used a rubber spatula. It worked out great. Just one tip, make sure you pick out the unpopped corn kernals before putting the popcorn in. They can hide really easy and be really hard to bite down on.
