Kettle Corn Recipe for Movie Night with Crochet Star Wars Chewbacca Mason Jar Cozy
Make movie night more festive with our colorful kettle corn recipe and a crochet Star Wars Chewbacca Mason jar cozy!
As kids, Chewbacca was my sister’s and my favorite Star Wars character, so it seems only fitting that he be one of the characters we make for our movie night mason jar cozy. This is a fun and easy project that will add a lot of flavor to a night of entertainment.
Let’s start with the Kettle Corn…you can munch on it while you crochet!
Kettle Corn Recipe
We’ve changed up the traditional kettle corn recipe by using agave nectar instead of sugar (if you don’t have agave nectar, use ¼ cup of white sugar).
By adding a few drops of food coloring, this simple snack food becomes an extra special treat.
So, let’s get poppin’.
Kettle Corn Ingredients:
- 2 Tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
- 2 Tablespoons butter
- 1/2 cup white popcorn kernels
- 1/3 cup agave nectar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 4 drops of food coloring
Kettle Corn Directions:
- In a large pot, heat oil and butter on medium-high heat. When it boils, add agave nectar, salt, food coloring and popcorn.
- Constantly shake pot over heat. When popping starts to slow down, remove from heat and pour popcorn into a large bowl. CAUTION: the agave nectar/sugar burns easily. You will want to remove the pan from the heat long before there are 2 seconds between pops.
- Stir and allow popcorn to cool before serving.
