Dark Chocolate Peppermint Popcorn
Health Highlights
This Dark Chocolate Peppermint Popcorn is a healthy holiday treat! Pile the Popcorn high in fun containers for serving, or eat it yourself straight off the pan!

Ingredients


10 cup Popcorn, air-popped, unsalted
1 cup Dark chocolate chips (or white chocolate)
2 cane Candy cane, peppermint (crushed pieces)
2 tbsp Rainbow sprinkles (holiday coloured sprinkles, optional)

Instructions


  1. Line two cookie sheets with parchment paper or foil. Spread popcorn evenly among the pans.
  2. Put the chocolate chips in a microwave-safe container and microwave for 30 seconds. Pull out and stir. Microwave for another 30 seconds. Pull out and stir again. The chocolate should be melted at this point. If it's not, microwave for another 10 seconds. Repeat until it's soft and drizzly.
  3. Using a large spoon, drizzle the chocolate over the popcorn using fast motions creating thin lines of chocolate.
  4. While the chocolate is still warm, sprinkle the crushed candy cane and your festive sprinkles or M&Ms over the top.
  5. Allow chocolate to re-harden before moving. You can pop the trays in the freezer to speed up the process.
