Social media platforms are flooded with content showing easy and convenient steps to do our household chores. From cleaning the washroom to organising closets to cooking in the kitchen, there is a solution for every task available on the Internet. However, we doubt about these hacks’ actual credibility. This time, we stumbled upon a reel of someone making chocolate popcorn. While we love the idea of cooking it, we are unsure about its preparation method.

Can We Make Chocolate Popcorn Using A Foil?

Taking to X, Alona Loewen (@alonaloewen) shared an Instagram reel of making popcorn using aluminium foil and just a couple of ingredients.

The video begins with placing an aluminium foil, adding popcorn kernels, a block of butter, and an entire chocolate bar, and covering everything with another foil. The next step is to fold all edges and seal completely.

It is a must to poke a small hole in the middle of the foil and then cook it on a stove until the kernels get cooked completely, According to the video’s results, the foil sheets open to freshly made chocolate popcorn following these simple steps.
