CANDIED ALMOND BARK POPCORN
A yummy twist on normal buttered popcorn that is quick to make and oh so good! Almond bark is slightly sweeter than white chocolate and just melts in your mouth. You can make this recipe festive for any holiday by adding any color sprinkles while popcorn is still warm. Wait until it is completely cooled before breaking it up and storing it.

Steps:
- Place packaged popcorn in the microwave; cook on high until popping begins to slow down, about 2 1/2 minutes. Pour popcorn into a large bowl. Remove any unpopped kernels.
- Place almond bark in a saucepan and melt over medium-low heat, stirring constantly so it does not burn on the bottom, about 8 minutes. Pour melted almond bark over popcorn and stir to coat evenly. Pour out onto a baking sheet to cool.

ALMOND BARK POPCORN
I discovered this little treat by accident while covering pretzels. I got frustrated with that tedious process, but didn't want to waste the almond bark, so I poured it over a batch of popcorn. Now I don't do pretzels anymore.

Steps:
- Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Put 4 popcorn kernels into the oil and cover until popped; add remaining kernels to the saucepan in an even layer. Cover and remove from heat, about 30 seconds. Return to heat and gently shake pan back and forth over the burner until popping slows to several seconds between pops, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Spread popcorn out onto a few sheets of waxed paper.
- Place almond bark in the top of a double boiler over simmering water. Stir frequently, scraping down the sides with a rubber spatula to avoid scorching, until bark is melted, about 5 minutes.
- Drizzle the melted almond bark over the popcorn; mix to coat evenly. Let bark dry, about 30 minutes.

Tips:
- Use fresh popcorn for the best results. Stale popcorn will not hold the almond bark coating as well.
- Make sure the almond bark is melted smoothly before adding the popcorn. If the almond bark is too thick, it will be difficult to coat the popcorn evenly.
- If you want a thicker coating of almond bark on your popcorn, dip each piece individually. This will take more time, but it will give you a more even and consistent coating.
- Be careful not to overheat the almond bark. If the almond bark gets too hot, it will burn and become bitter.
- Store the almond bark popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature. It will keep for up to 2 weeks.
Conclusion:
Almond bark popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack that is perfect for any occasion. It is a great way to use up leftover popcorn, and it is also a fun and festive treat to make with kids. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can make a batch of almond bark popcorn that everyone will love.
