Holiday Popcorn Garlands

Ingredients

  • 3 bags (2.9 oz each) (30 cups popped) Smart Pop! 94% Fat Free Microwave Popcorn
  • 3 cups Fresh cranberries
  • Embroidery needle
  • Coarse sewing thread

Directions

  1. Prepare popcorn according to package directions. For easier handling, spread popped corn on sheet pans; let stand for 3-24 hours before using.
  2. Double thread needle and tie a knot at end. Thread a kernel of popped corn onto needle followed by a cranberry (or any desired combination). Repeat until strand of thread is filled. Leave about 2 inches of thread and cut; knot end to secure strand.
  3. Repeat until all the popcorn and cranberries are used. Drape strands on tree or in home for a festive decoration!
  4. Dispose of strands at end of holiday season.

Cook's Tip: To make 8 cups of popcorn using Orville Redenbacher's® Gourmet® Popping Corn, measure out 1/2 cup popcorn plus 3 tablespoons Orville Redenbacher's® Gourmet® Popping and Topping Buttery Flavor® Popcorn Oil. Place oil in large, heavy-bottom pan over medium-high heat. Add kernels when oil is hot. Cover and turn heat to medium. Remove from heat when you hear the popping slow.
