Tiger Butter Popcorn

First off, let me warn you all that this is not a figure friendly healthy recipe but it is delicious!

The other day I overheard a recipe similar to this on the Food Network but I sort of tweaked it to make it my own.

What you'll need:
popcorn kernels
air popper
1 cup peanut butter
1 cup sugar
1 cup agave nectar (or honey)
1/2 cup (approx) dark chocolate morsels
1/2 cup (approx) white chocolate morsels
a few pinches of salt

In a large bowl, pop the popcorn and set aside.

In a medium bowl, combine the peanut butter, agave nectar (or honey) and sugar. Melt in 20-30 second increments in the microwave until melted but not cooked. Stir it all together and then pour over the popcorn. Use a spatula and stir the popcorn and peanut butter mixture together.

Spread the popcorn on a large baking sheet lined with wax paper.


Melt the dark chocolate in the mircowave or using a double boiler. Be careful not to over cook it.
Drizzle over the popcorn.


Melt the white chocolate and drizzle over the popcorn.




Then sprinkle a little bit of salt all over the popcorn to give it that sweet and salty deliciousness. (You can also crunch up pretzels for the same taste but I didn't have any and I wanted this NOW!)

Put it in the refrigerator for about an hour or until hardened.

After its all cooled and firm break it into bite size pieces. And enjoy!!

And she's off!

TRES started walking on DOS' birthday, 4/4/11, and slowly but surely she's finally walking more than crawling. Her physical therapist is thrilled and thinks she's right where she needs to be. Woohoo!
