Assassin’s Creed comes to theaters December 21st. To get ready for the release, we have a super simple Pop Secret Churro Popcorn Recipe for you.
The upcoming theatrical debut of Assassin’s Creed has gotten me playing my old Assassin’s Creed games. I went out to Walmart late one night to pick up some snacks and grabbed some Pop Secret. I got a great idea for some Churro Style Popcorn

Pop Secret has a great promo going on right now. Buy 2 Pop-Secret 10 ct or 10+2 ct bonus packs at Walmart between 12/7/16 – 1/8/17 and get an $8 credit toward a ticket to the Assassin’s Creed movie while supplies last.
The new Assassin’s Creed film takes place in Spain, so I wanted to create a Spanish-style treat. I’m not a big fan of spicy food, but I love the sweet stuff. My favorite Spanish desserts are churros. I decided to adapt this recipe from Homemade Hooplah.

People
|
- 1 bag Pop Secret Movie Theater Popcorn
- 1/2 cup Butter
- 2/3 cup Granulated Sugar
- 3 tbsp Ground Cinnamon
- 2 tbsp Light Corn Syrup

Churro Sugar Coating

|
- In a small bowl, mix together all the ingredients for the churro sugar coating (powdered sugar, granulated sugar, and cinnamon), then set aside.
- Prepare popcorn by microwave for 3-4 minutes (or until popping slows). Pour popcorn in a large mixing bowl and set aside, giving it time to cool a little while you prepare the next steps.
- In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium heat. Add granulated sugar, cinnamon, light corn syrup, and vanilla. Allow ingredients to a simmer, whisking constantly, until mixture is smooth and no longer grainy, about 2-4 minutes.
- Begin to slowly pour cinnamon coating over popcorn a little at a time. Use a spatula to gently stir and toss the popcorn to coat.
- Sprinkle the top of the popcorn with 1/3 of the churro sugar coating, then toss to coat. Continue adding more churro sugar coating until popcorn is completely covered and appears light gold in color.
- Serve immediately.
If you are excited as I am for Assassin’s Creed, or just really love Churros, this is a quick and easy recipe you can use to make Pop Secret popcorn even better!
