Seriously loving this quick and easy treat lately! I am now keeping these wilton wafers on hand along with popcorn and its all ready in 10 minutes. It’s as easy at 1.2.3!
Step 1: Pop a bag of popcorn.
Step 2: Melt some chocolate. Its fun to have colorful (Wilton wafers) but chips or almond bark work as well. DO NOT OVERCOOK chocolate….melting a little and stirring inbetween helps loosen the big chunks of chocolate.
Step 3: Dump melted chocolate on popcorn in a large container and shake, shake, shake. (I make sure all the uncooked kernals are out before this).
Place it in the freezer for 5 minutes and shake, shake, shake again. I like it cold, but its all ready to enjoy now! Yum yum and a crowd favorite! I use plain popcorn and add a little salt after the chocolate it on, but I have also tried the pre buttered and it gives it a bit of a sweet/salty flavor, too.
Now…have you ever heard of homemade microwave popcorn? I had heard of the process but never tried it until recently and it works amazingly! Grap a bag of kernals (
Dump it into a plain old lunch sack. About 1 cup.
Fold and tape the bag closed.
Lay it down flat and cook. I have a “popcorn” button, but about 2 minutes.
And it overflows out!
Enjoy this tasty treat!!!

Yum. We love love popcorn around here and love to try new flavors!
My 10-year old daughter is a serious popcorn lover AND chocoholic, so I can’t wait to try making this for her tonight! I recently tried Orville Redenbacher’s caramel corn, and it’s surprisingly like what you just described, except with caramel instead of chocolate. I can do that myself without buying a special package! Thanks for the great idea.
Can’t wait to try the chocolate popcorn & I happen to have some Wilton’s Melts on hand
Never heard of the homemade microwave popcorn but will have to try it out. Very interesting! Thanks for sharing your results.
Hi, Yes, we tried it and it was delicious! She loved it.
