Step 1

Pop your popcorn either in your microwave, in a hot air popper, or on the stove.

Step 2

Transfer the popped corn to a rimmed baking sheet and spread it out.

Step 3

Once the popcorn is ready, start melting you chocolate. Place it in a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 30 seconds, stir, microwave for another 30 seconds, and then continue microwaving in 10 second intervals until you're happy with its level of melty-ness.

Step 4

Stir in 5-7 drops of peppermint essential oil, or to taste.

Step 5

Pour or spoon the chocolate over the popcorn and stir/toss it to coat.

Step 6

Enjoy! But be ready for messy hands if the chocolate is still melty.

Step 7

All the chocolate to cool completely as possible (this usually takes several hours!) before transferring it to an airtight container for storage.
