Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 10 cups popped popcorn
- 1.5 cups white chocolate chips
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil
- 2 tablespoons sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
- 0.5 teaspoon sea salt
Instructions
Prepare 10 cups of popped popcorn by using an air popper, microwave, or stovetop. Remove any unpopped kernels and place the popcorn in a large mixing bowl.
In a microwave-safe bowl, add 1.5 cups of white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Heat in 20-30 second increments, stirring after each interval, until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth. Take care not to overheat the chocolate.
Pour the melted white chocolate over the popcorn. Gently toss the popcorn with a spatula or clean hands to evenly coat it in the chocolate.
Sprinkle 0.5 teaspoon of sea salt over the coated popcorn for a perfect balance of sweet and salty. For a festive touch, add 2 tablespoons of decorative sprinkles, if desired, and toss lightly.
Spread the coated popcorn in a single layer on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Allow the popcorn to set at room temperature for 30 minutes or place it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes to speed up the process.
Once the white chocolate has hardened, break apart any large clusters of popcorn and transfer it to a serving bowl or airtight container.
Enjoy your Winter White Popcorn immediately, or store it in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
