Chocolate Popcorn

The simplest path from popcorn to a treat: melted chocolate, a pinch of salt, done.

⏱ 10 min 👩‍🍳 Easy 🍽 4 servings

Three ingredients, ten minutes - and the base for every other chocolate creation on this site.

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
  • 3 tbsp oil
  • 5 oz semisweet or milk chocolate
  • 1 tsp coconut oil
  • 1 pinch flaky sea salt

Instructions

  1. Pop the kernels.
  2. Melt the chocolate with the coconut oil over a double boiler, or in the microwave in 20-second bursts, until smooth.
  3. Drizzle it over the popcorn in a thin stream, tossing constantly so the chocolate coats evenly.
  4. Sprinkle with flaky sea salt and let set for about 10 minutes before serving.

Tips & Variations

  • Semisweet for adults, milk chocolate for kids - both work with the same amount.
  • The coconut oil makes the chocolate more spreadable and keeps it from cracking as it sets.
