Made with pantry items, this is a fun, simple treat for kids and adults alike. Ingredients 10 cups lightly salted popcorn 2 cups semi-sweet real chocolate chips (12 ounces bag) 1 1/2 cups dried cranberries

Instructions
Spread popcorn out on a large rimmed baking sheet, should be one layer. (Or cover area of table or counter with wax paper/white freezer paper and spread one layer of popcorn on it, making sure all kernels are touching.) Sprinkle evenly with 1/2 of the dried cranberries.

Melt the chocolate chips in the microwave. Heat at half power for two minutes at a time. Stir often to avoid burning.

Once chocolate is fully melted, transfer to a large heavy duty freezer bag that has been opened and set into a small bowl for support. Seal bag, carefully snip off a small part of one corner with scissors.

Working quickly, squeeze chocolate over popcorn and cranberries, keeping in mind the chocolate will help them stick together. Sprinkle remaining 1/2 of dried cranberries on the warm chocolate and popcorn. Let cool and chocolate will harden. Break into large or small chunks and store in an airtight container or sealed bag for up to two days.
