...6.12...Delicious Vegan Food we ate...

...this is a fun snack...reminiscent of the popcorn balls we used to get at Halloween...way back in the days when children were allowed to accept homemade treats on Halloween...

...Mom made them for us too...I can remember buttering up my little hands to scoop up the still warm sticky popcorn and form it into a ball...

...this version is from one of my 1980's cookbooks...

...still loving the air popper...we have popcorn just about every evening...it's the snack we take out on the upstairs porch with us for our relax/unwind/screenless time...

...the ony thing I didn't have on hand were the dried apricots...so I just subbed dried cranberries...

...oh...I also didn't have any light corn syrup...so I'm just using agave for that...

...and then although I have brown sugar...I'm subbing white since I'm using the sort of brown agave...

...I'm always a little bit nervous cooking molten sugar...and you can see that I got it a little bit too hot...

...poured it over the popcorn...

...and gave it a good mix...

...and then I buttered the 9x13 dish...the recipe calls for and 8x8 but those are going to be some pretty thick bars...

...pressed it in the pan...

...and let it sit a while before cutting...

...I'll definitely be making these again...such a fun treat...

...what delicious food have you been eating lately?...

~Have a lovely day!
