Instructions
1. In a small bowl, melt the chocolate in the microwave in 15-second intervals, stirring between each.
2. Stir the chocolate and tahini together until smooth. Taste it; if you’d like it sweeter, add a few drops of maple syrup.
3. Lay the popcorn out on a parchment-lined baking sheet.
4. Drizzle the chocolate-tahini sauce over the popcorn. Immediately shower the popcorn with sesame seeds and flaky salt so they stick to the still-liquid chocolate.
5. Let the popcorn rest for 15 minutes at room temperature, or less in the fridge, to let the chocolate settle in.
