Description

Make this simple, sweet-and-salty popcorn snack mix using pantry staples for a comforting treat perfect for movie nights or family sharing.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 tsp Vegetable Oil
  • 50 g Corn Kernels (Popping Corn)
  • 75 g Salted Nuts
  • 25 g Mini Marshmallows
  • 30 g Cornflakes
  • 50 g Dark Chocolate Chips (Bittersweet)
  • 50 g Dark Chocolate (Bittersweet)
  • 50 g Milk Chocolate

Instructions

  1. Add 2 tsp Vegetable Oil and 50g Corn Kernels to a large saucepan. Put on a medium heat shaking the pan occasionally until the popping stops. Tip the popcorn out onto a large tray.
  2. Chop 75g Salted Nuts. Keep some chunky, chop some a little smaller based on your preference. Do not chop them too small. Add the nuts to the popcorn.
  3. Also add 25g Mini Marshmallows, 30g Corn Flakes, and 50g Dark Chocolate Chips.
  4. Mix everything together well and spread out on the tray.
  5. Break up 50g Dark Chocolate and 50g Milk Chocolate into a small bowl or saucepan.
  6. Melt the chocolate in the microwave or on the hob and stir well.
  7. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the snack mix.
  8. Leave the mix to cool. Use your hands to break up any bigger pieces where the chocolate has stuck ingredients together. You can leave some clumps for variety.
  9. Store in an airtight container or eat immediately.

Notes

  • This mix is easy to adapt; switch nuts or add seasonal candies for different holidays.
  • For a quicker melt, use chocolate chips instead of breaking up bars.
