Chocolate And....


marshmallows and popcorn! At least that’s what I used. I got the idea from my Grandma. She told me about her very first project in home economics class. She made chocolate covered peanuts, which I love and had every intention of making, but didn’t pick up peanuts when I went shopping. You use anything you want here, pretzels, cookies, Oreos, graham crackers… anything you like! But here’s what I have this week:

1 cup Chocolate Chips
Marshmallows
Popcorn

1. First step is to put the chocolate chips in a bowl and microwave them. Mine went in for 58 seconds, stirred it and put it back in for another 87 seconds. Anyone spot the pattern?


2. Get ready a pan or plate, and cover it with wax paper or aluminum foil.


3. Get ready the marshmallows and popcorn. What I did here was cut the marshmallows in half, but you can leave them whole if you prefer.


4. Cover them in chocolate and put them on the foil.


5. Take some small bowls and line them with foil as well. Put in some popcorn.


6. Drizzle this popcorn with chocolate.


7. Move these into a refrigerator and let the chocolate harden. I took mine out after 30 minutes, but I was a little impatient.

Candies! Great movie night snacks here as well! And the marshmallows do look a little bit like hockey pucks, so on your next hockey night you can make these too.

Enjoy!
