Ingredients
Scale

Instructions
- Pop the popcorn kernels using an air popper or stovetop method until you have about 8 cups of popped popcorn.
- In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the butter until fully liquid. In another bowl, melt the chocolate chips in the microwave, stirring every 30 seconds until smooth.

- Spread the finished Frankenstein Popcorn onto parchment-lined baking sheets and allow it to cool completely before serving.
