This highly addictive popcorn boasts chocolate-covered potato chips and swirls of salted caramel. One handful won't be enough!
Ingredients
  • About 8 cups popped caramel corn (homemade or packaged)
  • ½ pkg white chocolate bark (I like Candiquik)
  • 1 pkt Duncan Hines Frosting Creations in Caramel
  • Chocolate-covered potato chips*
  • Sea salt
Instructions
  1. Line a flat, clean work space with wax paper. Meanwhile, microwave the white chocolate bark in a large bowl until smooth and melted. Remove about 3-4 Tablespoons of the white chocolate mixture to a smaller bowl.
  2. Add the caramel packet to the smaller bowl of white chocolate; stir to combine. Set aside. Then, add the popcorn to the remaining white chocolate in the larger bowl. Gently toss to combine. Spread the white chocolate-coated popcorn in an even layer onto the wax paper.
  3. Break up the chocolate covered potato chips into pieces and sprinkle evenly over the still-wet popcorn. Drizzle the caramel mixture over the top of the popcorn and immediately sprinkle with sea salt. Allow the popcorn to set, about 20 minutes, before breaking into clusters to serve. This will keep airtight about a week, if it lasts that long!
  4. *For Chocolate Covered Potato Chips, take about 2-3 cups crinkle-cooked potato chips (like Ruffles) and coat them in melted chocolate -- I used Candiquik. Allow the chocolate-covered chips to set before breaking into clusters. Since they're being broken up anyways, don't worry about making the coating look neat -- as long as the chips are mostly covered, you're fine. You could even dip just half or just one side if you're pressed for time.*
