FAQ
Can I use microwave popcorn?
Yes, just stick to a plain or lightly buttered version so the flavors don’t compete.
Can I swap the chocolate chunks for chips?
You can, but chunks give you those bigger chocolate bites that stand out more.
How do I store this?
Keep it in an airtight container at room temperature for a few days. It stays crunchy and snackable.
Can I add anything extra?
Crushed pretzels, peanut butter chips, or even a drizzle of caramel would all work really well.
Does the chocolate fully harden?
Yes, once it sets, it holds everything together just enough to form clusters without getting too firm.
Sprinkle of Fun
