Ingredients
To make Chocolate Popcorn Treats, you'll need:
  • 1 tbsp. vegetable oil
  • 5 tbsp. popcorn
  • 175g dark chocolate (70% cocoa)
  • 75g butter, diced
  • 3 tbsp. agave nectar
  • 25g white chocolate

Method

  • Pour the vegetable oil into a medium-size pan, and place the pan over a high heat. When the oil has warmed up, lower the heat, and add the popcorn. 
  • Leave to cook until it’s all popped. 
  • Place the dark chocolate in a bowl, and melt it over a saucepan of simmering water.
  • Mix in the butter and agave nectar. Throw the popcorn in with the melted chocolate mixture.
  • Line a loose-bottomed 20cm-square tin with baking parchment. 
  • Put the whole mixture (the popcorn, melted chocolate, butter, and agave nectar) in the tin.
  • Using the back of a spoon dipped in a mug of boiling water, press the mixture down firmly.
  • Place in the fridge for 60 minutes to set.
  • Put the mixture on a chopping board upside down and remove the baking parchment.
  • Melt the white chocolate in the same way you melted the dark chocolate. 
  • Using a teaspoon, drizzle the white chocolate onto the popcorn treats and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
  • Slice the treats into 16 squares and tuck in!
