Chocolate Butterscotch Popcorn

Yesterday our three girls started to have mini meltdowns once the evening started to approach. As for any parent when your children starts to have meltdowns it can be stressful and exhausting. With that being said, I decided it was an easy diner for the evening followed by family movie night. And when your a house full of girls involving meltdowns, you have to add in the sweets. Our daughter's do not get the specialty of sweets in our house daily. I feel they get enough sugar from fresh natural fruit and their Grandma's and Grandpa's. So don't worry my daughters are not completely deprived from all sweets. Ha ha ha. 

Since it is almost October we decided on a Halloween Movie. As a mom I am already thinking in my head what snack can I prepare that's follows our family movie night theme? Popcorn! But popcorn can be boring so he sweetened it up. We came up with our own ingredients and called it Chocolate Butterscotch Popcorn. Plus It fits in perfectly with the season; fall. 
Ingredients
Popcorn: 2 bags. 
Chocolate Chips: 1/2 cup. But it really depends how much chocolate you like sprinkled onto your popcorn and chex mix.
Butterscotch Chips: 1/2 a cup as well. Same follows as above.
Chex cereal: 3 cups
Candy Corn: I'll leave it up to you how many you want to add.

Steps
*Pop the popcorn and lay out on wax paper. 
*Melt your chocolate and butterscotch chips and drizzle it it over the popcorn. Then add your chex mix an drizzle the chocolate and butterscotch again.
*Let it cool down. Takes about 5-10 minutes. I put mine in the freezer to speed up the process. 
*Once the chocolate is hardened put add it into a serving bowl and mix in the candy corn. 







Is your family a pop corn loving family like mine?!
