Oreo Popcorn Ingredients

  • ½ cup popcorn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons oil
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts
  • 15 Oreo cookies
  • Salt, to taste

How to Make Oreo Popcorn 

Step 1: Break Oreos

Chop or break your Oreos into little pieces and set aside.

Step 2: Heat

Set your stove to medium heat and allow the Popper to preheat for 1 to 2 minutes.

Step 3: Add Oil 

Pour oil into the Popper. 

Step 4: Add Kernels

Drop 2-3 kernels into the pot. Pour in the remaining kernels once the first one pops. Then put the Popper’s lid on.

Step 5: Pop

Turn the crank clockwise while the kernels pop to keep them from staying on one side and burning. 

PRO TIP: If the spinner gets stuck mid-pop, simply lift it with your finger to release kernels that got logged behind.   

Step 6: Remove


Take the Popper off the heat when popping slows. Remove the lid to allow steam to escape.

Step 7: Melt

Melt white chocolate chips or candy melts in the microwave in 30-second intervals. Stir after every interval until completely melted.

Step 8: Drizzle

Drizzle the melted chocolate over your popcorn. Use a spatula to help you coat the popcorn evenly.

Step 9: Sprinkle

Grab your chopped Oreos and sprinkle them over the chocolate-coated popcorn. Put the Popper’s lid back on, and then toss the pot or give it a few cranks to distribute the cookies.

Step 10: Serve
