Happy National Popcorn day! We LOVE popcorn at our house, because of our weekly family movie nights we enjoy popcorn all the time and we love trying new flavors.  When I was in California at Universal Studios I tried out a popcorn store and they had one they called “churro popcorn”.  It was AMAZING!


SO I just HAD to make my own! A cinnamon crunchy shell and sprinkled with a cinnamon sugar mixture.  It tastes AMAZING and the kiddo’s LOVED it.  It’s delicious with JUST the candy coating, but sprinkling the cinnamon and sugar makes it more churro like.
