1. Prepare your popcorn base.
Spread the popped popcorn in a single layer over a large baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Pick out any unpopped kernels to ensure a perfect snacking texture.

2. Melt the chocolate.
Place the dark chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth. Alternatively, melt using a double boiler for extra control and shine.

3. Create the “spiderweb” drizzle.
Transfer the melted chocolate into a piping bag (or ziplock bag with the corner snipped). Drizzle the chocolate in overlapping circular motions to mimic spiderweb strands. The more random, the spookier!

4. Add your creepy crawlers.
Before the chocolate sets, gently press gummy or plastic spiders onto the web. If using plastic, remove them before serving — they’re for decoration only.

5. Let it set.
Allow the chocolate to firm up at room temperature for about 10–15 minutes, or refrigerate for 5 minutes if you’re in a hurry. Break into clusters and serve in a festive Halloween bowl.
