How to Make Chocolate Popcorn Bars
- Melt 12 ounces of chocolate chips in a medium saucepan over low heat, stirring constantly, until completely smooth and melted. Alternatively, microwave chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second intervals, stirring after each interval, until melted and smooth.
- In a large bowl, combine 6 cups of popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup of kernels) with 1/2 cup of your favorite candy (optional).
- Pour the melted chocolate over the popcorn mixture, stirring gently but thoroughly until every piece of popcorn is evenly coated.
- Line an 8x8 inch baking pan with parchment paper, leaving an overhang on the sides for easy removal.
- Press the chocolate-covered popcorn firmly and evenly into the prepared pan.
- Refrigerate for at least 1 hour, or until the chocolate is completely firm.
- Once firm, lift the bars from the pan using the parchment paper overhang.
- Cut into 2 1/4 x 2 inch bars and serve. Refrigerate leftover bars in an airtight container.
