Ingredients
Scale
Popcorn Mix
- 10 cups popped popcorn
- 1 cup pretzel sticks
- 1/2 cup gummy worms
- Candy eyes, as needed for garnish
Chocolate Coating
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- Green food coloring, a few drops
Instructions
- Prepare Popcorn Base: Place 10 cups of popped popcorn into a large mixing bowl along with 1 cup of pretzel sticks and 1/2 cup of gummy worms. This combination creates a crunchy, chewy base for the treat.
- Melt White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 1/2 cup of white chocolate chips by heating in 30-second intervals. Stir thoroughly between intervals until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted to prevent burning.
- Add Food Coloring: Add a few drops of green food coloring to the melted white chocolate and stir well to achieve a vibrant green color that complements the Halloween theme.
- Coat Popcorn Mix: Drizzle the green white chocolate evenly over the popcorn, pretzel sticks, and gummy worms mixture. Stir gently to coat all ingredients thoroughly without crushing the popcorn.
- Decorate with Candy Eyes: Sprinkle candy eyes over the coated popcorn mixture. These add a fun, spooky effect perfect for Halloween festivities.
- Set Chocolate: Allow the coated popcorn mix to sit at room temperature until the chocolate hardens and sets completely before serving. This ensures the coating stays intact for easy snacking.
Notes
- Use good quality white chocolate chips for better melting and flavor.
- Adjust the amount of green food coloring based on desired color intensity.
- Ensure popcorn is fully popped to avoid too many unpopped kernels that could affect the texture.
- This treat is best enjoyed fresh but can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days.
- For added texture, you can mix in other candies like candy corn or chocolate candies.
