spiced it up a little with a few dashes of cayenne pepper. also added a spoonful of peanut butter (since i didnt have peanuts). Mmmm! but use a throw away pan or maybe line pan with wax paper, since it was pretty messy to clean up.

I was missing a bunch of ingredients so I made this without any nuts, dark syrup instead of light, and semisweet chips. I added about 2T of brown sugar to make up for the sweetness lost with the chocolate and syrup. We have a local chocolatier that makes wonderful chocolate popcorn and I expected it to be like that, but baking it in the oven made the coating crispy and glossy like caramel corn. Mine wasn't soft at all - I think the key is to bake it the full time and stir every 5 - 10 minutes. This was wonderful and a huge hit for movie night. I'll make again to share with friends! I agree with others - make sure you pick out the seeds before you pour the chocolate on. I lined a cookie sheet with aluminum foil and used a baking spray, and nothing stuck at all.

This was really easy and delicious! The peanuts were a great addition. I used two bags of tender white microwave popcorn and baked it in two glass Pyrex dishes. I made this for my mom's retirement party (served in small dishes alongside party mix) and got tons of compliments. Definitely a keeper!

It was OK. A change from caramel corn or peanut butter popcorn...but I would definately prefer the other flavors over this. My kids didn't even like it that much.

OMG! I think I'm in chocolate heaven right now! If you like sweet and salty - this is for you! This stuff is great! 12 cups of popcorn is basically 2 bags of microwave popcorn and I used 2 cups of salted peanuts which was plenty and amounts to a small can. I used a bag of Hershey's semi-sweet chocolate chips (sorry Nestle) because I didn't want this to be overly sweet especially since it had light corn syrup. I used a large foil roasting pan for this so I could just toss it after I was done. Easy clean up!

Yum!! The first batch I made, I misread the ingredient list and used 1/4 pound of butter...instead of 1/4 c! So it was a little greasy since it was twice the amount needed. Second batch was perfect and yummmmy! I think this could be called PMS Popcorn...the perfect mix of chocolate/salt/crunch! :)

I used smart balance margarine in place of the margarine. I did not care for this - I prefer caramel popcorn to this.

I made this for my son's Halloween party and it was a huge hit! I can't say the kids were eating it as much as the adults/teachers, but I was asked for the recipe threefold! Thanks
