Chocolate Toffee Crunch Popcorn


Gourmet popcorn is one of my favorite treats! Except for the gourmet price, I can't think of anything I don't like about  it. Problem solved - make your own! What a perfect treat for this August heat- NO BAKING required! With a few ingredients and a microwave you are set!

Chocolate Toffee Crunch Popcorn
*Recipe by Crazy Daisy

20 cups popcorn (or two bags microwave popcorn)
1 (8 oz.) bag Heath Bits
1 (12 oz.) bag semisweet chocolate chips (or 2 cups)
1 (11 oz.) bag butterscotch chips, divided
1 tablespoon Canola Oil or shortening 

Spread waxed paper onto over two cookies sheets. Spray with cooking spray to prevent sticking.

Pop corn. You will want to make sure to take out all  of the unpopped kernels. Pour into a very large bowl and add Heath Bits.

In microwave-safe bowl, melt semisweet chocolate chips with one cup of butterscotch chips for 2-2 1/2 minutes stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.

Pour over popcorn mixture and gently stir until combined. Spread onto prepared cookie sheets.

Place remaining butterscotch chips in a zip-lob bag. Place in microwave for 1 minute.  Every thirty seconds, take bag out and use fingers to knead to mix. When smooth, clip a tiny piece of the corner off of the bag and drizzle over popcorn (to quicken this process, place in fridge or freezer). Let dry and break into pieces. Wouldn't this be fun wrapped in treat bags for gifts? Enjoy!
