• Pour the syrup over the popcorn and seal the bag by rolling the top once or twice. Give the bag a good shake to coat the popcorn with the syrup well.
• Place the bag in the microwave and cook for 1 minute and 10 seconds on high powder. Shake the bag vigorously and microwave for another 1 minute and 10 seconds. Transfer the popcorn onto a piece of parchment or wax paper. Let the coated popcorn cool and set. Enjoy!

Dump the popcorn out onto waxed paper, and let cool until coating is set. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container.
