How To Make crackin' cayenne chocolate corn

  • Step 1
    Popped corn, peanuts, pecans mix together in a shallow bowl or on a cookie tray.
  • Step 2
    Melt down your chocolate in a double boiler or microwave; whichever is easier for you. When melted add your cayenne pepper to your taste. I would start with 1 tsp and then add more. Stir chocolate till the cayenne is well combined. Next, drizzle over your popcorn and nuts and then sprinkle the bacon bits over the top.
  • Step 3
    This is the bacon bits that I like to use.
