DARK CHOCOLATE CANDY CANE POPCORN

This holiday inspired popcorn requires only 3 simple ingredients and takes only 5 minutes to make! Vegan, gluten-free + nut-free. This popcorn would make the perfect treat to snack on while snuggled up watching cheesy Christmas movies. Enjoy!

Prep Time 5 minutes
Total Time 5 minutes
Servings 6 servings
Calories 129 kcal

Ingredients

  • 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
  • 1/2 large dark chocolate bar (75-100g), melted (check ingredients to make sure it's dairy-free)
  • 1 large candy cane, crushed

Method

  1. Pop popcorn kernels in an air popper or over the stove. Once popped, spread the popcorn onto a lined baking sheet.

  2. Evenly drizzle ~1/3 of the melted chocolate over the popcorn, immediately followed with a sprinkle of ~1/3 of the crushed candy cane. Once the chocolate has set, gently toss the popcorn.

  3. Repeat the second step two more times, or until all pieces have been drizzled with chocolate. If the chocolate isn't setting right away, refrigerate the tray for one minute before tossing the popcorn.

Notes

  • Nutritional information is approximate, and was calculated using air popped popcorn with no oil.

Oh hey, it’s been a while...but I’m back...and Oh hey, it’s been a while...but I’m back...and I’ve brought COOKIES !!! And not just any cookies. We’re talking COOKIES N’ CREAM CHOCOLATE CHIP COOKIES aka my signature cookies. Friend had a bad day? I’m bringing these cookies. Rainy afternoon? I’m baking these cookies. And I’ve finally put the recipe up on the blog (link in bio) so you can now make them too !! They’re chewy and perfectly crisp around the edges. Think chocolate chip cookie perfection with the added bonus of oreos for that cookies n’ cream taste 🍪🥛 TIP: add a scoop of your favourite dairy-free vanilla ice cream in between two of these and you have the most decadent ice cream sandwich 🤩 Enjoy!! x

I’m sure most of you can agree that lockdown has been really tough. Here in Melbourne, it just seems to be dragging on and on. Lately, I’ve reallyyy been lacking motivation and creativity when it comes to cooking and making recipes (anyone else!?) and most days just getting out of bed is an accomplishment. 

But today was a good reminder for me that something as simple as getting outside and wandering around a new suburb, catching up with a friend, or treating yourself to a warm drink can change your outlook.

So this is just a friendly reminder to be kind to yourself, and try to do one simple thing that will brighten your day. Whatever that means for you. 😌✨

Can you believe that is NOT meat!? 🤯 I finally Can you believe that is NOT meat!? 🤯 I finally tried cooking with jackfruit and it did not disappoint !! I used caned jackfruit (in brine - not syrup) and simmered it in soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, garlic, ginger + brown sugar, and then baked it to get that meaty texture juuust right. It was SO good in this Vietnamese inspired rice noodle bowl with baked tofu, cabbage, carrot, cucumber, mint and peanut sauce 🤤 If anyone has any jackfruit tips or favourite recipes please share, I’d love to experiment with it some more! x
