Sleepover S’mores Popcorn

Originally published on May 20, 2016

Last weekend my house was invaded by little girls. My own two had a sleepover and it was a bash to end all bashes! We tie-dyed t-shirts, decorated a cake (which inadvertently turned out to have a tie-dye look of its own), and made S’mores Popcorn. It’s just what it sounds like, popcorn topped with all the deliciousness of S’mores. I warn you, if you’re over the age of 12, you might find the sugary sweetness of this snack a bit much. But, if the kids need a snack to nosh on during their movie and you want to up the ante, this is just the thing.

  • 8 cups of popped popcorn, lightly buttered but generously salted     
  • 2 cups mini marshmallows  
  • 1 cup chocolate chips
  • 1/2 cup honey graham cracker crumbs  

Directions:

1.) Over a double boiler, or a heat-proof bowl set over a simmering pan, melt chocolate chips, stirring constantly and making sure the hot water does not touch the bottom of the bowl. When all of the chocolate is melted, remove from heat and allow to cool just slightly.

2.) Meanwhile, lay half of the popcorn onto a baking sheet covered in parchment. Sprinkle on half of the graham cracker crumbs and half of the marshmallows. When the chocolate has cooled slightly, drizzle half of it over the popcorn mixture.

3.) Repeat the layers, starting with the popcorn, then the graham cracker crumbs and marshmallows, and drizzle everything with the remaining chocolate.

4.) Serve and enjoy!
