1 lb almond bark
1 6 ounce box candy canes, crushed
2 teaspoons peppermint extract
3/4 cup semi-sweet or dark chocolate chips
1. Pop the popcorn! Place popcorn in a very large mixing bowl.
2. Melt almond bark according to package instructions. When completely melted, add extract or peppermint oil. If using extract, it’s normal for the almond bark to seize (get lumpy) which is okay, just stir very quickly, the more you wait the more it will seize.
3. Pour melted almond bark mixture over popcorn and pour crushed candy canes on top. Stir to evenly coat. Pour popcorn out onto waxed paper, parchment, or foil and spread out.
4. Place chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl and heat in 30 second intervals, stirring in between, until melted and smooth. Drizzle over popcorn mixture.
5. Let mixture dry completely until chocolate and almond bark are hardened. You may place in the fridge to speed process along.When chocolate is hardened, use your hands to break up popcorn into chunks.
