Equipment

  • 2 large baking trays

  • small saucepan

  • whisk

  • microwave-safe bowl

  • serving bowls

Ingredients

  • Cooking spray

  • 120g popped popcorn, any unpopped kernels removed

  • 110g butter

  • 220g Gem soft light brown sugar

  • 4 tbsp golden syrup

  • 3/4 tsp salt

  • 1/4 tsp Gem bread soda

  • 1/2 tsp vanilla extract

  • 100g Gem milk chocolate chips

  • Additional halloween sweets ( jellies, candies etc.)

Instructions

1
Preheat the oven to 120°C/100°C fan/gas mark 1⁄2. Coat two very large, shallow baking dishes with cooking spray, then add the popcorn, spreading it out evenly. Once the oven is preheated, place the popcorn in to warm through for 6-8 minutes.
2
Meanwhile, melt the butter in a saucepan over a medium heat. Stir in the sugar, golden syrup and salt.
3
Bring to the boil, stirring constantly. Once the mixture comes to the boil, leave to cook for four minutes without stirring.
4
Remove from the heat and stir in the Gem bread soda (bicarbonate of soda) and vanilla extract. Pour the mixture in a thin stream over the popcorn, stirring to coat.
5
Bake the toffee popcorn for 45 minutes, stirring every 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and allow to cool before breaking into chunky pieces.
6
Add the milk chocolate chips to a microwave-safe bowl and melt in the microwave in 30-second increments until smooth, stirring after each one and being careful not to let it burn.
7
Add the popcorn to serving bowls, drizzle with melted chocolate and top with a variety of sweets. Add Gem dark, milk or white chocolate for extra sweetness.

Notes

Melt and pipe chocolate with ease! Submerge your sealed bag of Gem Chocolate Chips into a bowl of hot water and wait for them to melt (5-10 minutes). Then snip a tiny hole in the corner of the bag and pipe over your bake. It's as simple as that!
