Tasty Kitchen Recipe: ENJOY!


No, that’s not a typo in the title…this is puppy chow made with popcorn! Found this on TastyKitchen.com.  If you are anything like me you keep popcorn on hand more than Chex.  It is a delicious, healthy alternative!
  • Prep Time 10 Minutes
  • Cook Time 5 Minutes
  • Difficulty Easy

Ingredients

  • 9 cups Air-Popped Popcorn
  • 1 cup Semi-Sweet Chocolate Chips
  • ½ cups Natural Peanut Butter
  • ¼ cups Butter (1/2 Stick)
  • 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
  • 1-½ cup Powdered Sugar

Preparation Instructions

In microwave or double boiler, melt chocolate, peanut butter, and butter until melted. Stir in vanilla. Place the popped popcorn* in a large bowl and pour the chocolate mixture over all. Stir until evenly coated. Add the powdered sugar and stir until each piece is covered. Spread out on cookie sheets to set the chocolate. Try not to eat the whole batch immediately. If you have any leftover, store in an airtight container.
*Be sure to first remove any unpopped kernels from the popcorn! We don’t want any broken teeth!
