For an extra layer of indulgence, consider drizzling melted dark chocolate over the cooled popcorn clumps. Store the Dark Chocolate Popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature to maintain its crispiness. Experiment with adding a pinch of sea salt to the cocoa mixture to enhance the sweetness and add a salty-sweet dimension.

Follow The Directions
01
Step
5 mins
Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Lightly grease a 9x13-inch baking dish. (5 minutes)
02
Step
5 mins
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine the sugar, butter, cocoa powder, and corn syrup. Bring to a gentle boil, stirring constantly, until the mixture thickens slightly, about 1-2 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the vanilla extract. (5 minutes)
03
Step
5 mins
Place the popped popcorn in an extra-large bowl. Pour the warm cocoa mixture over the popcorn, and gently toss until each kernel is evenly coated. Ensure no popcorn remains uncoated for the best flavor distribution. (5 minutes)
04
Step
2 mins
Spread the chocolate-covered popcorn evenly in the prepared baking dish. (2 minutes)
05
Step
30 mins
Bake in the preheated oven, stirring every 10 minutes, until the mixture is set and slightly hardened, approximately 30 minutes. This ensures even baking and prevents burning. (30 minutes)
06
Step
1 hrs
Remove from the oven and let cool completely at room temperature. As it cools, the popcorn will clump together. Once fully cooled, break it into satisfyingly chunky pieces. (60 minutes)
