Ingredients:

*1 regular bag of kettle corn (7.5 cups popped) – I use Orville Redenbacher’s Smart Pop

*3/4 cup semi sweet chocolate chips

*1/3 cup peanut butter

*1 teaspoon vanilla extract

*1 1/2 cups powdered sugar

*1 unused paper grocery bag

Directions:

1. In the microwave, pop the kettle corn. When completed, empty the contents into a large bowl and remove any unpopped kernels.

2. In the microwave, heat the chocolate chips and peanut butter until melted. Stir in the vanilla extract.

3. Pour the chocolate mixture over the popcorn and stir until evenly coated.

4. Add about 1/2 a cup of powdered sugar to the bottom of the unused paper grocery bag. Pour the popcorn mixture into the bag, and add the remaining powdered sugar.

5. Fold the grocery sack tightly closed, and shake vigorously. I recommend doing this outside if possible, as sometimes powdered sugar can escape from the sack and create a mess!

6. Spread the poppy chow on a sheet of wax paper/on a baking sheet to allow the chocolate to set. Store in an airtight container.
