Ingredients
  

  • 12 cups plain air-popped popcorn about 1/2 cup of unpopped kernels
  • 16 ounces white chocolate melting wafers or vanilla almond bark
  • 1 cup crushed peppermint candies or candy canes
  • 1/4 cup festive sprinkles optional

Equipment

  • 2 Large Baking Sheets
  • 1 Large Mixing Bowl
  • Parchment Paper
  • 1 Rubber Spatula

Method
 

  1. Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Place the popped popcorn in a very large, heatproof bowl, ensuring all unpopped kernels are removed.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate wafers in 30-second intervals, stirring between each, until smooth. Do not overheat.
  3. Pour the melted white chocolate over the popcorn and gently fold with a rubber spatula until evenly coated. Spread the mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheets.
  4. Immediately sprinkle the crushed peppermint candies and festive sprinkles over the popcorn before the chocolate hardens.
  5. Let the popcorn set at room temperature for about 1 hour or in the refrigerator for 10-15 minutes until the chocolate is completely firm. Once set, break into clusters and serve.
