Ingredients
- 1 bag of popcorn
- 1/2 cup brownie mix
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 1/2 cup chocolate chips
- 1/4 cup mini marshmallows
Instructions
- Prepare the popcorn by popping the bag according to package instructions. Transfer the popped popcorn to a large mixing bowl, carefully removing any unpopped kernels.
- In a separate microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter completely. Once melted, add the dry brownie mix and stir until a smooth mixture forms.
- Pour the brownie batter mixture over the popcorn, using a spatula or wooden spoon to gently coat the popcorn evenly. Ensure each piece is lightly covered with the brownie batter mixture.
- Spread the coated popcorn onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Create an even layer to allow for proper cooling and setting.
- Sprinkle chocolate chips and mini marshmallows over the popcorn, distributing them evenly across the surface.
- Place the baking sheet in the refrigerator for approximately 15 minutes to allow the brownie batter to set and the chocolate chips to slightly firm up.
- Remove from refrigerator and break the popcorn into clusters. Serve immediately or store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
Tips
- Use fresh, high-quality popcorn for the best texture and flavor. Avoid stale or pre-packaged popcorn that might compromise the overall taste.
- When melting butter, do it slowly and carefully to prevent burning. A microwave or double boiler works best.
- Ensure the brownie mix is thoroughly combined with the melted butter to create a smooth, even coating for the popcorn.
- Line your baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone mat for easy cleanup and to prevent sticking.
- Don't skip the refrigeration step - this helps the brownie batter set and creates a delightful texture.
- For extra indulgence, try using different types of chocolate chips like dark, milk, or even white chocolate.
- Store in an airtight container to maintain crispness and freshness. Consume within 3 days for optimal taste and texture.
