If you follow my blog you know I am at Disney World and so excited to be here. But I didn’t forget about my food challenge this week which our challenge food is CHOCOLATE!! Oh yes chocolate!! While at Disney World I am attending Food Blog Forum Conference!! A little side activity is a “swap” where we bring something that is indigenous to Arizona!! Well I couldn’t take cactus or a havelina but there is a fantastic little company that makes the most amazing Gourmet Flavored Popcorn!! Poppa Maize!!! So Poppa Maize has donated some of his yummy popcorn for this swap!!
I picked up some of his Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn how yummy is that?? It works perfectly with my Challenge food this week!! So here is my Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn Bark with a Disney Twist!! I melted chocolate almond bark and simply spread it on my parchment paper. I sprinkled it with the Poppa Maize Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn, peanuts and mini peanut butter cups. It was then drizzled with melted peanut butter chips!
Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn Bark
Ingredients
- 12 oz melted chocolate almond bark
- 2 C Popcorn I used Poppa Maize Peanut Butter Chocolate
- 1/2 C peanuts
- 1 C. mini peanut butter cups chopped
- 1/2 C. Melted peanut butter chips plus 1 t. shortening
Instructions
- Melt bark in 20 second intervals stirring in between until melted.
- Spread chocolate on parchment paper.
- Sprinkle with Popcorn, peanuts and mini peanut butter cups.
- Drizzle with melted peanut butter chips! If your pb chips do not get melted enough to drizzle add in the shortening and stir until it is melted!
- Put in fridge for 10 minutes until harden. Once harden break into pieces.
- For a fun twist you can use cookie cutters to make fun shapes!!
I popped it in the fridge for about 10 minutes to harden a bit. Before it was too set up I took my Micky Mouse cookie cutter and cut out the bark!! Isn’t this adorable?? Mickey Mouse Popcorn Bark!!! I love it!! Wrap it up in a cello bag and put a bow on it and you have a super cute Disney inspired treat to share!!
