Copycat "Moose Munch" Popcorn

Moose Munch, a popcorn by the company Harry & David, sounds terrible. What is it? Popcorn covered in fried moose hides? Moose doo-doo? Moose tooties from their booties?

Ok, I'll stop being gross now.

It's quite far from the categorization of gross. Moose Munch is caramel popcorn drizzled with white chocolate, milk chocolate, and almonds. If that's what moose (mooses? moosi? mooseses?) snack on, sign me up to be part of the herd in my next life.

I wanted to melt both the white and milk chocolate over the popcorn, but I burned the milk chocolate. So to cover-up the mistake, I'll simply label this as "Moose Munch with Chocolate 2-Ways." Fancy, right?

The good news is it was still flippin' good. My boyfriend requested a never-ending bag of it, so I'll take that as a sign of quality. Try melting both chocolates if you've got superior liquefying skillz!
Copycat "Moose Munch" Popcorn     A Shareable Snack for 2 
1 box Crunch n' Munch caramel popcorn (Comes with nuts in it! Woo!)
3 squares (or 1/4 cup of chips) white chocolate
1/4 cup milk chocolate chips

1.) Spread popcorn on a baking sheet to form a single layer.
2.) Carefully(!) melt the white chocolate in the microwave in 30 second intervals. Drizzle over the popcorn.
3.) Repeat to melt the milk chocolate chips and drizzle over the popcorn. If burnt, toss a handful of chocolate chips in the popcorn and tell yourself the candy company must employ a bunch of quality assurance morons.

  6. ooo it's like moose track ice cream but in popcorn form! You can't go wrong with TWO chocolates. Even if one is slightly burnt.

  7. I've always wondered about the plural form of "moose"… it's so frustrating. I have never tried moose munch, but this does look delicious - it looks like the kind of treat I'd really enjoy!
