Halloween Popcorn Ingredients
- 1 packet Oh Sooo Buttery Popcorn
- ¾ cup white chocolate chips
- Natural green food coloring (gel preferred)
- Natural orange food coloring (gel preferred)
- ¼ teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ cup orange and green M&M's
- ¼ cup mini pretzels
- 2 tablespoons roasted pumpkin seeds
- 2 tablespoons dried cranberries
- Pinch of sea salt
Halloween Popcorn Mix Directions
Step 1: Heat
Set your stove to medium heat and let the Popper preheat for 1 to 2 minutes.
Step 2: Squeeze Oil
Cut open the coconut oil portion of your Oh Sooo Buttery Popcorn packet and squeeze it into the Popper.
Step 3: Add Kernels
Cut open the kernel portion of your popcorn kit and drop 2 to 3 kernels into the pot. When the first one pops, add the rest.
Step 4: Add the Buttery Salt
Cut open the seasoning packet, pour it into the Popper, and cover the pot.
Step 5: Turn
Turn the Popper's crank every couple of seconds while the kernels are popping. You don't have to crank the entire time since the pot's stainless steel body and multi-clad metal bottom help prevent burning!
Step 6: Remove
Take the Popper off the heat when popping slows to 1 to 2 seconds between pops. Then remove the lid and pour the popcorn onto a parchment-lined baking sheet.
Step 7: Make Colored Chocolates
Divide the white chocolate chips into three portions. Melt each in separate microwave-safe bowls in 30-second intervals:
-
White chocolate: Melt ⅓ of chocolate chips with vanilla extract
-
Green chocolate: Melt ⅓ of chocolate chips and add 2-3 drops of green food coloring, stirring until evenly colored
-
Orange chocolate: Melt remaining chocolate and add 2-3 drops of orange food coloring
Step 8: Drizzle
Let the melted chocolates cool slightly, then drizzle the white, green, and orange chocolate over the popcorn.
Step 9: Add Mix-Ins
While the chocolate is still slightly warm, sprinkle the M&M’s, pretzels, pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, and sea salt over the popcorn.
Step 10: Serve
Wait for the chocolate to set, break your Halloween popcorn mix into clusters, and enjoy!
More Halloween Popcorn Tips and Ideas
- Up the spook factor with black or purple candy melts instead of white chocolate.
-
Make it extra crunchy by lightly toasting the finished popcorn in a 250°F oven for 5 minutes before adding chocolate.
- If you or your guests have a major sweet tooth, you can also top your Halloween popcorn with gummy worms, candy corn, and peanut butter cups.
- While you can serve the popcorn as is, you can also make popcorn balls, wrap them in cellophane, and hand them out to trick-or-treaters.
