Chocolate Popcorn Balls

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

These Dairy-Free Popcorn Balls Reinvent Traditional Cinema Snacks

— June 2, 2015 — Lifestyle
Dark Chocolate Drizzled Popcorn Balls are a healthy alternative to the traditional movie-worthy snack. This dairy-free recipe appeals to those who are gluten-free as well as vegan.

In place of the usual butter, sugar, corn syrup or marshmallows, this recipe holds the popcorn together with the use of natural honey. Not only does it operate as a delicious glue but it also gives these popcorn balls a caramel-like color as well as flavor. Though a sweet accent to the salty flavor, the dark chocolate drizzle is optional. However, it is suggested to mix in nuts, dried fruit and/or spices if the chocolate is being skipped.

This recipe is bound to refashion the way movie goers and snack advocates perceive popcorn.
