  • In a baking pan (I used a 7-inch pan with a with removable bottom) butter the bottom and sides with remaining 1 tablespoon of butter (you may only need 1/2 tablespoon butter) be sure the pan is coated completely
  • Place pan in the refrigerator so it chills and the popcorn mixture is set about an hour.
  • Remove popcorn cake from pan,
  • place the cake on a tray with a slotted cooling rack so the chocolate that is poured over will drip and not pool at the bottom of the cake.
  • Melt the chocolate completely.
  • Pour chocolate over popcorn cake.
  • Use an offset spatula to spread the chocolate over the top evenly and down the sides until the whole cake is covered.
