Chocolate Chips - you can use whatever chocolate chips you like. I like using milk chocolate for this recipe. Peanut Butter - you can use chunky or smooth peanut butter, I used chunky for a bit of added flavor. Popcorn - I buy the sea salt bagged popcorn from ALDI, you can buy whatever bag of popcorn is your favorite. You can also make homemade popcorn!
– Place parchment paper across a cookie baking sheet. – Spread the popcorn on a cookie sheet in one flat layer. – Melt chocolate and peanut butter, 30 seconds, stir, 30 seconds, stir and then melt for an additional 10 seconds I ended up melting mine for a total of 1 minute 20 seconds. – Drizzle the melted chocolate over the popcorn. – Place the popcorn in the fridge for 1 hour. – Break into pieces and serve.
Add sprinkles. Anything you can add sprinkles on, you should. If you want to add some pops of color and a fun and festive twist, add sprinkles! Use colored chocolate melts. Wilton sells colored candy melts that could be perfect if you're making this for a holiday, themed party, or anything. Add crushed peanuts. If you want an added crunch, add crushed peanuts to the top to really add to the peanut butter flavor. Use white chocolate. Add white chocolate and then top with colored sprinkles, a drizzle of colored melts or anything!
