Staying in tonight for some Netflix and chill?

Or, in our case, more like Netflix and snacks?

Well, then we have just come across a recipe you have to try – again, thanks TikTok!

Can we all agree that sweet + savoury is just pretty much the perfect taste combination when it comes to snack food? If you agree, then, my friend, Nutella popcorn is about to rock your world.

Yep – that’s right.

Creative TikTokers are adding Nutella to their homemade popcorn – and the results are utterly mouth-watering.

Now – be warned, this is a tad more time-consuming than just flinging a bag of popcorn into the microwave, but the good news is that you probably have everything you need already.

All you’ll need to make this cinema-worthy treat is butter, a deep pan, popcorn kernels, and a jar of sweet, sweet Nutella.

Now, here is what you do:

How to make Nutella popcorn

Add your butter and Nutella to the pan, mixing and melting the two together until they make become one delicious concoction.

I mean; you could nearly eat this dreamy buttery Nutella mix on its own, but for the sake of this recipe, proceed with the popcorn part.

Warning: Don’t turn the heat up too high, or you risk burning it.

Now, add the popcorn kernels to the pan, mixing them up with the chocolate-butter blend, making sure they are all covered.

Before you put the lid on the pan, give the mix a good stir, put the lid on, and sit back and wait for the magic to happen.

(Note: Be sure to keep an eye on the cooking process to make sure things don’t start burning)

You’ll see when most of the popcorn is popped and know then it’s ready to be eaten.

Here is a tip – make an extra-large portion, because this chocolate-y, buttery treat is bound to do down a treat with everyone.
