There's really only one appropriate way to celebrate a party, a movie marathon, or an awards show: by popping some corn kernels, of course.

S'mores Popcorn
Minimarshmallows, chocolate chips, and sea salt popcorn create a riff on the Summer treat.
Popcorn Balls
Sticky and satisfyingly sweet popcorn balls are convenient for on the go or on your couch. Anything can be tossed in the mix, even mango and nuts, with this recipe.
Truffle-Parmesan Popcorn
Treat yourself to something truly gourmet by popping up truffle-parmesan popcorn.
Garam Masala Popcorn
The Indian spice garam masala makes for a cozy batch of savory popcorn.
DIY Popcorn Bar
Bacon bits, pecans, marshmallows, and chocolate chips provide great flavor and contrasting texture to buttered popcorn. Make your own crazy combo by setting up a DIY popcorn bar for your next party.
Cherry Garcia Popcorn
Yes! This cherry garcia popcorn is inspired by the Ben & Jerry's pint.
Cinnamon Popcorn
Did you know that just about any spice can be sprinkled atop popcorn? The trick is using enough oil to ensure that the spices stick onto the kernels. Cinnamon, chili powder, and even garam masala can be used in this recipe, which guides you through the stovetop cooking method.
Chocolate Popcorn
Most may drizzle chocolate over the popcorn, but this recipe for chocolate popcorn with sea salt calls for the kernels to be tossed in melted chocolate chips.
Peppermint Popcorn
The holidays may be over, but people are always looking for ways to use up leftover candy canes. Enter chocolate peppermint bark popcorn.
Popcorn Cake
What's popcorn cake? Think giant Rice Krispies Treat, but made with popcorn instead of the cereal. Add your favorite candies to the mix to make it extraspecial.
Zebra Popcorn
This samoa popcorn isn't technically the same as zebra popcorn (which is drizzled with white and dark chocolate), but it has the same appearance, with the bonus of coconut shavings.
Caramel Popcorn
Butter who? Caramel is so the new standard in popcorn land.
