Hot Red Wings Popcorn

Popcorn· Recipe Archive

Hot Red Wings Popcorn

Next game night, instead of having popcorn and candy, have candy popcorn instead! It’s sweet, spicy and salty all at once. And if it makes the wings hot, it will surely be hot for you! If they win, you are going to have to make it every time they play.

    Once upon a time, Hot Tamales were one of my favorite candies. I’ve had flavored popcorn before but never like this, it’s very creative. Thanks for joining us again at Celebrate Your Story, have a great weekend.
