For an extra layer of flavor, try using smoked sea salt or adding a pinch of chili powder to the melted chocolate. Feel free to experiment with different types of chocolate, such as milk chocolate or white chocolate, to create your own unique variation. Store the chocolate-covered corn kernels in an airtight container in a cool place for up to 2 weeks.
