Cooking InstructionsHide images
step 1
In a small mixing bowl, combine Granulated Sugar (1 Tbsp), Chili Powder (1 Tbsp), Ground Cinnamon (1 tsp), Salt (1 tsp), and Cayenne Pepper (1 pinch). Set aside.
step 2
Heat up Canola Oil (2 Tbsp) in a large saucepan over medium heat, then add in the Popcorn Kernels (1/4 cup) and shake the pan so the kernels are coated evenly with oil. Cover the pan and turn to high heat.
step 3
Keep the lid on, shake the pan every 15 seconds to prevent it from burning. The kernels will begin to pop in a few minutes. Once the popping slows down to every 2 seconds, remove from heat.
step 4
Add the Butter (1/4 cup) to the saucepan, mix to combine. Then add in the spice mix and mix until all the popcorn is well coated.
step 5
Transfer popcorn onto a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper in a single layer. Drizzle Dark Chocolate (3/4 cup) over the popcorn. Transfer to the fridge to chill for 15 minutes. Serve immediately.
