- Then drizzle the popcorn balls with the melted chocolate and decorate.

Steps:
- Prepare a clean paper shopping bag or oversized mixing bowl. Heat a large heavy pan over medium heat and film the bottom with vegetable oil. Add the popcorn, shake to distribute, then put a lid on the pan. Leave a small crack for steam to escape. When the popcorn starts popping, shake vigorously to make sure the kernels pop evenly. When the popping slows, take the pan off the heat.
- Pour the popcorn into the paper bag or bowl to cool, being careful to leave any unpopped kernels in the pan. Lightly salt the popcorn to taste.
- Mix the honey and sugar in a small saucepan and bring to a boil. Let it simmer for a couple minutes, then remove from the heat and add the peanut butter. Stir vigorously until all the peanut butter is melted, and then mix in the vanilla.
- Immediately pour the peanut butter caramel over the popcorn and stir with a long-handled wooden spoon until it's all coated. Pour onto a greased cookie sheet. Drizzle with white chocolate.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Make the chocolate crust: Combine cookie crumbs, granulated sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon salt in a bowl. Stir in butter. Press mixture into bottom and 2 1/2 inches up sides of 9-inch springform pan. Bake until dry and firm, 8 to 10 minutes. Let cool.
- Make the caramel sauce: Heat granulated sugar and water in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, washing down sides of pan with a wet pastry brush to prevent sugar crystals from forming, until medium amber, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat, and carefully add heavy cream (mixture will bubble and steam). Return to heat, and bring to a boil, making sure caramel that seized up when cream was added melts. Transfer to a bowl, and stir in creme fraiche. Refrigerate until cool but still pourable, about 45 minutes. Fold in peanuts.
- Meanwhile, make the peanut butter mousse: Beat cream cheese and confectioners' sugar with a mixer on medium-high speed until pale and fluffy. Beat in 1/2 teaspoon salt. Add peanut butter and vanilla, and beat until combined. Whisk heavy cream in a separate bowl until medium-stiff peaks form. Fold one-third of the whipped cream into peanut butter mixture. Fold in remaining whipped cream in 2 additions.
- Assemble the tart: Pour caramel sauce into cooled chocolate crust. Gently spread peanut butter mousse over caramel in an even layer, making sure they don't blend together. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
- Make the chocolate ganache: Place chocolate in a small heatproof bowl. Bring cream to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Pour cream over chocolate, and let stand for 1 minute. Whisk to combine. (Use immediately.)
- Remove tart from refrigerator, and pour in ganache to cover surface. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes.

Steps:
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside.
- Place the popcorn kernels into a large brown paper bag and roll the top down to seal the bag. Transfer to the microwave and microwave on high until all the kernels have popped, about 4-5 minutes. Transfer popcorn to a large bowl and mix with peanuts. Set aside.
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, stir together the sugar, water, corn syrup, and molasses and bring to a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook until sauce reaches 260ºF, about 15-20 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in the apple cider vinegar, vanilla extract, and salt. Pour immediately on top of the popcorn and peanut mixture, stirring until evenly coated. Set aside and allow to cool slightly.
- Once cool enough to handle, spray your hands with cooking spray and form mixture into baseball sized-balls, about 3-inches in diameter. Place formed balls on prepared baking sheet and set aside until cooled completely and hardened.
- In a microwave safe bowl, add the white chocolate chips. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stirring in between, until completely melted. Transfer melted chocolate to a piping bag or zip-top bag and snip off the tip or corner. Pipe lines on the popcorn ball so it resembles a baseball and allow chocolate to cool.
- Serve immediately or wrap in plastic wrap and keep up to 1 week.
