With the holidays quickly approaching (hello Christmas carols on the radio), it’s time to think about holiday baking. You’ll want to stock up on Land O’ Lakes butter, which can be found at Walmart in the refrigerated section. I used their unsalted sweet butter sticks for this holiday recipe and I love the hint of sweetness it added to the popcorn. This festive recipe is quick and easy. No baking involved. Plus, it makes a large batch so you can easily divide it up into 1/2 pint mason jars and gift as gifts to your neighbors or co-workers. My son’s teachers might just be getting an early holiday treat. So, throw on some holiday music and get cooking!
