Heck Yes! (Chocolate Peanut Butter Popcorn) image

Peanut butter and chocolate lovers unite! This is a snappy dessert that hardly takes any time or effort. It was born one night when I was craving something delicious and melty, but being a poor college student I found myself with limited ingredients and equipment. I'm so glad that was the case, because this is now one of my favorite desserts! Heck yes! ;)

Time 5m

Yield 1 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 5

2 cups microwave popcorn (I always use one mini bag of Orville Redenbacher's 100 calorie kettle korn)
5 Dove dark chocolate miniatures
1/4 cup chunky peanut butter
15 Teddy Grahams honey graham snacks, if desired (can use any flavor, I use the Oatmeal-flavored)
1/4 cup mini marshmallows, if desired

Steps:

  • Pop kettle corn in microwave until finished-- listen carefully to be sure it doesn't burn! Meanwhile, chop 4 of the miniature Dove chocolates, leaving the 5th one whole.Remove popcorn from microwave and set aside.
  • Place peanut butter in microwave-safe mug and microwave until partially melted (about 15-20 seconds). Remove from microwave and put the unchopped chocolate in the peanut butter. Place peanut butter back in microwave for about another 15-20 seconds or until chocolate has melted.
  • Meanwhile, place 1/2 of the bag of popcorn in a microwave-safe bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 of the chopped chocolates, 1/2 of the teddy grahams (if desired) and a few mini marshmallows.Remove melted peanut butter from microwave and stir.
  • Drizzle 1/2 of the mixture over the popcorn and chopped chocolate in the bowl. Repeat the layers of popcorn/chopped chocolate/teddy grahams/marshmallows/drizzled peanut butter. Place bowl in microwave and heat until chopped chocolate has softened up a bit (about 10-15 seconds). Remove, sit back, and enjoy.
  • *Note: can make process even easier by substituting dark or semisweet chocolate chips in place of chopping the miniature Dove dark chocolates. Also, can add things like candy corn, colored M&M's, Reeses Pieces, etc to make recipe Holiday-friendly-- have fun with it!

"I use semisweet chocolate because it works with the toffee and butter, but milk chocolate tastes just as good!" says Sunny.

Provided by Sunny Anderson

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/3 cup popcorn kernels
2 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus more if needed
1/2 cup toffee chips
1/2 cup honey-roasted peanuts
1 cup semisweet chocolate chips

Steps:

  • Combine the vegetable oil and 1 popcorn kernel in a heavy pot over high heat; cover. When it pops, add the rest of the kernels. Partially cover and cook, shaking the pot, until you no longer hear the popping sounds. Remove from the heat and spread the popcorn on a baking sheet.
  • In the same pot, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the toffee chips and peanuts and stir until the toffee melts and evenly coats the peanuts, about 2 minutes, adding more butter if needed. Pour the mixture over the popcorn. Use a rubber spatula to toss the popcorn and toffee sauce to evenly coat.
  • Put the chocolate chips in a small microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring, until melted. Dip a whisk in the melted chocolate and use it to drizzle over the popcorn. Let harden before serving.

I found this recipe when I was looking through a book on Girl Scout activity ideas. I have not tried it, but would like to when we have our next Troop SWAP. Did you know popcorn kernels can pop up to 3 feet in the air?

Time 25m

Yield 6 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/4 cup popcorn
vegetable oil
fine salt
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup peanut butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
6 ounces white chocolate, melted

Steps:

  • Prepare a clean paper shopping bag or oversized mixing bowl. Heat a large heavy pan over medium heat and film the bottom with vegetable oil. Add the popcorn, shake to distribute, then put a lid on the pan. Leave a small crack for steam to escape. When the popcorn starts popping, shake vigorously to make sure the kernels pop evenly. When the popping slows, take the pan off the heat.
  • Pour the popcorn into the paper bag or bowl to cool, being careful to leave any unpopped kernels in the pan. Lightly salt the popcorn to taste.
  • Mix the honey and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Let it simmer for a couple minutes, then remove from the heat and add the peanut butter. Stir vigorously until all the peanut butter is melted, and then mix in the vanilla.
  • Immediately pour the peanut butter caramel over the popcorn and stir with a long-handled wooden spoon until it's all coated. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet. Drizzle with white chocolate.

Here's what you need: unsalted butter, marshmallow, peanut butter, popcorn, nonstick cooking spray, dark chocolate chip, milk chocolate chips, heavy cream, powdered sugar, vanilla extract, milk

Provided by Betsy Carter

Categories     Desserts

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons unsalted butter
7 oz marshmallow
⅔ cup peanut butter, divided
8 cups popcorn, popped
nonstick cooking spray, for greasing
2 cups dark chocolate chip
2 cups milk chocolate chips
1 ½ cups heavy cream
4 tablespoons powdered sugar, divided
2 teaspoons vanilla extract, divided
3 tablespoons milk

Steps:

  • Melt the butter in a large pot over medium heat, then add the marshmallows and stir until starting to melt. Add ⅓ cup (80 g) of peanut butter and stir until completely melted. Remove the pot from the heat.
  • Add the popcorn to the pot and stir to coat completely. Let cool for 2 minutes.
  • Grease a 9-inch (23-cm) springform pan with nonstick spray. Press the popcorn mixture into the pan using the bottom of a measuring cup, creating an even layer along the bottom and halfway up the sides. Set aside.
  • Add the dark chocolate chips and milk chocolate chips to a medium bowl and melt in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds, about 2 minutes total. Set aside to cool to room temperature.
  • In a separate medium bowl, whip the cream with an electric hand mixer until stiff peaks form, then add 3 tablespoons of powdered sugar and 1 teaspoon of vanilla and beat to incorporate.
  • Fold the whipped cream into the cooled chocolate.
  • Spoon the chocolate mixture into the popcorn crust. Spread evenly.
  • In a small bowl, combine the remaining ⅓ cup (80 g) peanut butter, 1 tablespoon powdered sugar, 1 teaspoon of vanilla, and the milk, stirring until smooth. Transfer to a small piping bag or zip-top bag.
  • Pipe lines across the surface of the pie. Drag a toothpick through, perpendicular to the lines, alternating directions from top to bottom.
  • Chill the pie in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.
  • Release the springform, then slice and serve.
  • Enjoy!

Tips:

  • Use fresh, high-quality popcorn kernels. Avoid using old or stale kernels, as they will not pop as well.
  • Heat the oil in a large pot or Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the popcorn kernels. You can test the oil by dropping a few kernels into the pot. If they pop immediately, the oil is ready.
  • Add the popcorn kernels to the pot and stir constantly. This will help to ensure that all of the kernels pop evenly.
  • Once the popcorn starts to pop, reduce the heat to medium-low and continue stirring. This will help to prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Once all of the popcorn has popped, remove the pot from the heat and pour the popcorn into a large bowl.
  • Drizzle the melted chocolate and peanut butter over the popcorn and stir to coat. You can also add other toppings, such as chopped nuts, dried fruit, or candy.
  • Let the popcorn cool for a few minutes before serving. This will help to set the chocolate and peanut butter.

Conclusion:

Chocolate peanut butter popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. With just a few simple ingredients, you can create a sweet and salty treat that everyone will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy snack, give chocolate peanut butter popcorn a try.
