Notes
Note 1: Purchasing pre-popped popcorn makes this recipe simple, but if you’d rather pop your own, here’s what I use. You can also use 1/2 cup kernels, but be sure to add a touch of salt.
Storage: When popcorn is coated in chocolate, it softens. I like storing it in a big freezer bag in the freezer and enjoying it straight from there!
