How To Make Churro Popcorn at Home

PLAIN POPCORN. Start off by popping your popcorn and throwing it into a large bowl.

BUTTER / BROWN SUGAR MIXTURE. Melt your butter and brown sugar in the microwave. Pour the mixture over your plain popcorn and stir until coated.

CINNAMON / SUGAR COATING. Whisk together the powdered sugar, granular sugar, and cinnamon. Toss the popcorn in your cinnamon sugar coating.

DARK CHOCOLATE DRIZZLE. Pour your Churro popcorn onto a prepared baking sheet and drizzle with melted dark chocolate.

DRY AND EAT. I like to let mine sit at room temperature for the chocolate to harden but you can always throw it in the refrigerator.

4 Recipe Tips You Need To Know:

1. Use plain popcorn. I used microwave popcorn but you can also do air popped or bagged, pre-popped, plain popcorn.
2. Make sure your brown sugar is fully dissolved in the butter mixture before pouring over your popcorn.
3. Place your melted chocolate into a piping bag or plastic bag for a more controlled drizzle (that is what I did).
4. Add other goodies like a caramel drizzle, roasted nuts, or even chocolate chips.
