Ingredients
Scale
Popcorn Mixture
- 10 cups popped popcorn
- 1 cup pretzel sticks
- 1/2 cup gummy worms
- Candy eyes (about 1/2 cup)
White Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- Green food coloring (a few drops)
Instructions
- Melt the White Chocolate: Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second intervals, stirring between each, until completely melted and smooth.
- Color the Chocolate: Add a few drops of green food coloring to the melted white chocolate and stir thoroughly until evenly tinted.
- Coat the Popcorn: In a large mixing bowl, combine the popped popcorn and pretzel sticks. Pour the green white chocolate over the mixture and gently toss to coat evenly without crushing the popcorn.
- Add Gummy Worms and Candy Eyes: Quickly fold in the gummy worms and candy eyes before the chocolate sets, distributing them evenly throughout the popcorn mixture.
- Set and Serve: Spread the coated popcorn mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet. Allow it to cool and the chocolate to harden completely at room temperature before serving.
Notes
- Use good-quality white chocolate for a smooth coating and best flavor.
- Chill the coated popcorn in the refrigerator for faster setting if desired.
- Be gentle when mixing to avoid breaking the popcorn pieces.
- This recipe can be customized with different colored food coloring for various themes.
- Store leftovers in an airtight container for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
