Ingredients:
- 5 cups popped popcorn – *no butter (butter will keep the chocolates from sticking to the popcorn)
- 1/4 cup Wilton yellow candy melts

- Black sugar crystals
- White M&M’s; optional (I took these out of a bag of Valentine M&M’s)

Directions:
1. Line a 9 X 13 baking sheet with wax or parchment paper. Transfer the popcorn onto the baking sheet in a single layer and set aside.
2. In a microwave safe bowl, add the yellow candy melts. Microwave for 45 seconds. Remove from the microwave and stir until melted and smooth.
3. Drizzle the melted yellow candy over half of the popcorn.
4. Before the candy hardens, drizzle the black sugar crystals and white M&M’s on top of the melted candy.
5. Add the black candy melts to a microwave safe bowl and microwave for 45 seconds. Stir until completely melted and smooth. Drizzle on top of the remaining popcorn.
6. Before the candy hardens, sprinkle the yellow jimmies and white M&M’s on top of the melted black candy.
7. Chill for 15 minutes to allow the chocolates to harden.
