Black and White Popcorn is the perfect balance of sweet, salty, and crunchy. It is my Mother’s Day gift to myself, and to you! Enjoy with a glass or three of champagne.
Popcorn is one of my favorite snacks. It’s easy to make, and satisfies that salty/crunchy craving better than almost anything else. Now it can satisfy that sweet tooth craving, too.
I love freshly-popped, stove-top popcorn more than any other type. It comes out crunchier and airier than microwave popcorn. I don’t always make it this way, but when I do I am super pleased with the results. Microwave popcorn, or even pre-popped packaged popcorn will absolutely work for this recipe.
The black and white part of this recipe is going to be a dark chocolate drizzle and a white chocolate drizzle. We’re adding in some salted roasted peanuts, too, for extra texture.
Like I said above, you should enjoy this fancy popcorn with some champagne. In a bubble bath or in front of your favorite show with nobody else around to interrupt.

Salty popcorn drizzled with dark and white chocolate!
Ingredients

Instructions
- Spread the popcorn in an even layer on a baking sheet and sprinkle the peanuts on top.
