Ingredients

  • 1 bag microwave popcorn (I used a natural flavored one)
  • 1 pound white chocolate chips
  • Red and green sprinkles to taste

Instructions

  • Pop your popcorn according to package directions. Add it to a large baking sheet that's been lined with wax paper. Discard any unpopped kernels. 
  • Melt your white chocolate in a medium bowl in 30-second increments in the microwave (stir in between). I err on the side of microwaving less and letting it sit a bit longer between intervals so I don't scorch it. 
  • Pour the white chocolate over the popcorn and toss it with the chocolate until it's fully coated. You can use your hands or even salad tongs for this step. 
  • Spread the popcorn out in an even layer and add the sprinkles. 
  • Let the chocolate set. I like to speed this process up by putting the baking sheet in the fridge for 15 minutes or so. 
  • Keep in a sealed container or portion the popcorn up (e.g. in small bags). It'll last for a few days without going stale. 

Notes

  • This popcorn is really coated in the white chocolate. If you just want a hit of chocolate, halve the chocolate amount (I used 2 bags of white chocolate chips). 
  • 1 bag of microwave popcorn = 12 cups so keep that in mind if you're making popcorn another way.
