These fun treats combine rich chocolate with crisp, sweet-spiced air-popped popcorn. You’ll need to lightly crush the popcorn into smaller pieces so they’ll adhere better to the chocolate, and make sure to melt some coconut oil into the chocolate to help it set better. You can easily double the recipe if you’d like to serve more people or have handy snacks at the ready. They’ll keep in the fridge, lightly covered on the sheet pan, for two to three days, and the popcorn will still remain crisp. For a more intense chocolate experience, you can use dark chocolate chips.
