- 1 lb Almond Bark

Preparation
Step 1
Crush the candy canes and dump them in the bowl with the popcorn.
To melt the almond bark, break it up and put it in a glass measuring bowl and microwave on 1 min. intervals until it's nice & smooth.
When your almond bark is melted, add the peppermint extract. It will seize a little bit (get kind of lumpy) but it’s totally fine. Pour over popcorn and candy canes.
Stir it up really well until the candy is evenly distributed. Pour the popcorn out onto a piece of waxed paper, parchment, or foil. Spread it out into an even layer and leave it alone!
While the popcorn is setting, place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave in 30 second intervals until melted and smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the popcorn. You can use a fork, or put it in a zip-lock bag with the corner cut off.
When chocolate is hardened, use your hands to break up popcorn into chunks. Toss in a bowl, a jar, a cute package, or in your mouth :)
