Everyday I try to sneak a little time to read through my favorite blogs.  Some are by friends, some are for laughs and inspiration, most are filled with cool food.  I keep a little writing pad next to me as I go, jotting down recipes I hope to try.  I picked it up last week and realized it was almost full and I had made maybe one or two of the recipes.  I did a quick flip and landed on this at Hot off the Garlic Press. 

I did a little switch up by fiddling with some amounts and doubled it as well.  Although with so few ingredients there wasn’t a lot to fiddle with.  I will warn you – this stuff is seriously addictive. 

peanut butter popcorn

adapted from Hot off the Garlic Press

12 cups popped popcorn (that’s about how much my old school air popper makes in one go)

3/4 cup creamy peanut butter

1 Tablespoon butter

3 Tablespoons brown sugar

4 oz. milk chocolate (melted)

In a microwave safe bowl, melt the peanut butter, butter, and brown sugar.  Drizzle this mixture over the popped popcorn and stir to coat.  Spread the coated popcorn on a cookie sheet lined with wax paper.  Drizzle it with the milk chocolate and allow to set.  Then try to stay away.  I dare you!
