Definitely not your average cookies. Are you ready to take your taste buds on a journey to foreign lands you never knew existed? If so then follow me, I’ll be your captain. These popcorn cookies are perfect for anyone feeling a little ‘snackish’ but wanting to try something different.
This recipe puts a spin on the classic chocolate chip cookie we all know and love by adding popcorn (you heard me right, popcorn). I know what you’re thinking; I would’ve thought you were going crazy if you told me to mix popcorn into cookies before I tried this recipe as well. But I can guarantee that once you try them it’ll be like love at first sight (especially if you’re a popcorn lover like me).
The popcorn and the chocolate chips come together in these cookies to create the perfect balance of sweet and salty. Personally, what I love most about these cookies is the texture; the popcorn just adds the perfect amount of crunch to these soft chewy cookies.
These cookies will be the center of attention no matter what the occasion. Not to the mention the kids will absolutely love this fun and quirky combination.
