Salted Brown Butter Popcorn Treats

 This recipe is a take on the classic Rice Crispie treat.  By browning the butter you get a rich, nutty flavor.  The addition of fleur de sel just takes it over the top.  Instead of using Rice Crispies I decided to go with popcorn.  The result was a sweet, salty, sticky delicious snack.  Perfect for enjoying while watching our new scary obsession, American Horror Story.

Food Porn of The Week: Butter Toffee Popcorn

While enjoying some Butter Toffee Crunch & Munch at the beach this past weekend we came to the consensus that it is one of the most perfect salty/sweet combinations.  I thought to myself how hard could this be to make from scratch?

It wasn't hard at all!  I found this recipe and I was sold.  Instead of pecans I substituted slivered almonds.  It was so good I had to sneak some in to the movie theatre when we watched Despicable Me last night ; )
