This is a memory of my childhood, I guess it was the third thing I learned to make in the kitchen (after Brigadeiro and 123 Cookies).
Ingredients:
3 cups of freshly made popcorn (microwave is fine)
3 tablespoons water
3 tablespoons sugar
3 tablespoons Nesquick chocolate powder
Preparation:
In a large deep saucepan, mix sugar and water. Cook in medium-high heat. When the mixture comes to a boil, place the Nesquick and mix quickly, turning the heat to medium.
Immediately add the popcorn, stirring all the time. When the popcorn is all covered with the chocolate sauce, continue mixing for 1 more minute and turn off the heat.Continue mixing until the chocolate popcorn is dry and crispy.
Notes:
It looks easy, but:
From the moment you place the popcorn in the pan with the chocolate-sugar syrup, you should stir all the time, and the process is very fast. If it takes too long, the popcorn gets burned.
If the popcorn gets "soaked" it is because the mixture of water, sugar and chocolate was not correct. There was probably more water than it should. In this case, the popcorn shrinks and does not dry (thus, it does not get crunchy).
You will get the hang of it after making the popcorn a few times.
