Salted Caramel Popcorn Bars

Ingredients:

  • No-Stick Cooking Spray
  • 1 bag (76.3 g each) Orville Redenbacher’s® Gourmet® Naturals Simply Salted Microwave Popcorn

  • 20 caramels (from 11-oz pkg), unwrapped
  • 1 tablespoon water
  • 1/8 teaspoon salt
  • 3 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup Crunchy Peanut Butter

  2. Melt butter over medium heat in medium saucepan; add caramels, water and salt.  Heat 5 minutes or until caramels melt completely, stirring occasionally.  Add marshmallows and peanut butter; heat 1 to 2 minutes more, stirring until blended.
