Ingredients

  • 12 ounce chocolate chips semi-sweet or milk
  • 1 tsp. vegetable shortening
  • 16 ounce caramel popcorn such as Crunch and Munch

Instructions

  • Line a cookie/baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
  • In a microwave safe bowl, add chocolate chips and vegetable shortening. Microwave on high for 30 seconds.
