Ingredients

  • 10-12 cups popped popcorn or ⅓ cup kernels, popped
  • 1 10-12 oz bag white candy melts or white chocolate melted
  • 2 cups mini pretzels optionally broken in pieces
  • 10 oz Red and Green Christmas M&Ms regular, peanut, etc.
  • 1/2 cup Christmas sprinkles

Instructions

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment paper or wax paper and set aside.
  • Add the popped popcorn to a very large bowl. Add the melted chocolate, and half of the pretzels and half of the M&Ms. Mix until everything is combined and coated and chocolate.
  • Working quickly, spread the popcorn mixture on the prepared baking sheet. Immediately add the sprinkles and remaining pretzels and M&Ms white the chocolate is still melted.
  • Let the chocolate harden, break the popcorn apart, and enjoy!

Notes

  • Prepare Your Baking Sheet and Toppings in Advance: Prepare your baking sheet covered in parchment paper and have your toppings already to go before melting the chocolate. This ensures a quick and smooth assembly process without the chocolate hardening.
  • Work quickly: Work quickly so the chocolate doesn’t harden before the toppings are added and can stick to it.
