Go see my post HERE about my love affair with my Whirley Pop...which makes perfect carmel corn for these cookies!Popcorn Cookies
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking soda
1 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup butter, softened
1/2 cup butter, softened
1 cup granulated sugar
1 egg
1 or 2! teaspoon vanilla
2 cups popped popcorn, carmel corn, or Moose Munch, etc. slightly crushed
1 cup (6 ounces) semisweet chocolate chips - optional
1/2 cup chopped pecans - optional
Combine flour, baking soda and salt in a small bowl, set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, cream the butter and sugar until light and fluffy; beat in egg and vanilla mixing well. Stir in flour mixture until just mixed. Fold in popcorn, chocolate chips and pecans.
Drop by tablespoonfuls about 2-inches apart onto greased baking sheets.
Bake at 350 degrees for 10 to 14 minutes or until just golden brown. Transfer cookies to wire racks and cool completely. Store in airtight container.
Makes about 2 1/2 dozen.
Popcorn AND a cookie? Double yum!

I have never heard of these kinds of cookies before, but they sound pretty yummy! You can't go wrong with popcorn in my opinion, so it's worth a try. ;)
