Ingredients
- 8 cups Popcorn, popped (about 1/2 cup kernels)
- 1 cup Candy Corn
- 1 cup Pretzels, broken into pieces
- 1 cup Chocolate Candies (like M&M’s)
- 1 cup Peanuts or Mixed Nuts (optional)
- 1 cup White Chocolate or Candy Melts, melted
Instructions
- Pop the popcorn using an air popper or stovetop method, then place it in a large mixing bowl. Ensure there are no unpopped kernels.
- Stir in the candy corn, chocolate candies, and pretzel pieces. Mix gently so as not to crush the popcorn.
- If you’re using peanuts or any mixed nuts, add them at this stage and give the mixture another gentle stir.
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl, heating in 30-second intervals until smooth. Drizzle the melted chocolate over the popcorn mixture.
- Use a spatula or your hands to gently toss the mixture again, ensuring all pieces are coated with the chocolate.
- Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and allow it to cool. Once the chocolate hardens, break it into clusters for serving.
Notes
Control sweetness by adjusting the amount of candy used. Store in an airtight container to maintain freshness.
