HECK YES! (CHOCOLATE PEANUT BUTTER POPCORN)



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!

Tips:

  • Use fresh popcorn kernels. Older kernels are more likely to be tough and chewy.
  • Heat the oil over medium-high heat. This will help the popcorn pop quickly and evenly.
  • Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many kernels, they won't have enough room to pop properly.
  • Shake the pot frequently. This will help to distribute the heat evenly and prevent the popcorn from burning.
  • Listen for the popping to slow down. When the popping slows to a few seconds between pops, it's time to remove the pot from the heat.
  • Pour the popcorn into a large bowl. Add the melted peanut butter, honey, and vanilla extract and stir until evenly coated.
  • Spread the popcorn out on a baking sheet and let it cool. Once it's cool, break it into pieces and enjoy!
