How to Make Christmas Tree Popcorn Clusters

• Pop the corn as per directions in the packet and set aside.
• In a saucepan mix butter, sugar, corn syrup along with cinnamon on low heat and keep whisking until the sugar blends well. Remove from heat.
• Add the popcorn, nuts, cherries and raisins.
• Stir well until blended and set aside for 1-2 min until cooled enough to handle with fingers. But don't let it cool completely.
• Add a little melted butter in your hands so that the corn does not stick to your hands and then shape them into small balls.
• Let it cool and then wrap them in cellophane with decorative threads and hang them either on your Christmas tree or give as gifts.
