Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn
This weekend is one of our favorite times of the year for our family. It’s the time the leaders of our church (The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints) speak to us for 4-6 hours on Saturday and 4 hours on Sunday. It’s such a special time to gather as a family, eat good food and listen to these inspired and prophetic messages.
Enjoying good food and snacks is an important part of our weekend that helps keep the kids engaged and listening. This weekend we will be making a large batch of this Peanut Butter Chocolate Popcorn. We made a batch last Sunday while we watched the iconic movie Ben-Hur and we loved it so much we decided we need to make it again this weekend.
Anytime you need a sweet treat, give this delicious popcorn a try!
