Heat your oil in a medium saucepan with a lid, until super hot. 2 minutes.
Add your popcorn and toss it about for a couple of seconds to ensure you’ve coated the kernels in the oil.
Let the popcorn pop for a couple of minutes and turn off the heat as soon as it slows to 1 popping kernel a second.
As soon as you’ve popped the popcorn in the pan, you can get a frying pan going with the melted butter, syrup and salt.
Once it’s bubbling well, it’s probably time to turn the popcorn off. Then add your cocoa to the butter / syrup pan and stir through until well mixed through.
Now get two spoons ready and a big bowl.
Put the popped corn in a bowl and then quickly pour the chocolate caramel over it. You have to work FAST.

Voila. You’re done. Pop into little cups for parties or playdate snack plates with veggies, dips and a little cup of the popcorn OR serve from the bowl – however you do it, most importantly of all, enjoy!
