In a medium sauce pan over medium heat combine sugar and corn syrup. Stir constantly until the mixture comes to a boil. Turn off the heat and add one cup of peanut butter. Mix till well blended.
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees. Place the popcorn in a deep roasting pan. Pour hot peanut butter mixture over the popcorn. With a wooden spoon or spatula carefully stir and turn the popcorn until well coated. Place in the oven for 10 minutes. Halfway through the baking process turn the popcorn making sure to move the bottom pieces to the top so they do not burn.

While popcorn is cooling place your chocolate chips and vegetable oil in a small microwave safe bowl. Set the microwave for 50% power. Heat for 2-3 minutes.
