Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Heat the vegetable oil in a large pot over medium-high heat. Add the popcorn kernels, cover with a lid, and shake the pot occasionally until the popping slows down. Remove from heat and transfer the popped corn to a large bowl, removing any unpopped kernels.

  2. In a saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the sugar, amaretto liqueur, and salt. Cook, stirring constantly, until the mixture is smooth and the sugar has dissolved, about 2-3 minutes.

  3. Pour the amaretto mixture over the popped corn and toss to coat evenly. Add the toasted almonds and mix well to combine.

  4. Spread the coated popcorn onto a baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Allow it to cool and the coating to set, about 20-30 minutes.

  5. Break the popcorn apart into clusters and serve in a bowl or individual bags for a fun and tasty snack.
