Ingredients
- 1-2 tablespoons butter
- 1 cup popcorn kernels yields 16 cups popcorn OR
- 2 bags buttery popcorn microwaved
- 1 ½ cups white chocolate chips
- Christmas colored sprinkles
- parchment paper
Instructions
- In a large pot, over medium-high heat, melt 1-2 tablespoons butter. Once butter is melted, pour in popcorn kernels. Cover with lid. As popcorn begins to pop, give the pot a shake every now and then to toss kernels and prevent burning.
- When popping slows, remove from heat and spread popcorn in a single layer on parchment paper. *If using microwave popcorn, skip this step*
- While popcorn cools, melt a bag of white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl at 30-second increments until completely melted.
- Using a fork, drizzle melted white chocolate over popped corn. Immediately follow by sprinkling the green and red sprinkles over the top.
- Let it cool down for an hour for the chocolate to harden. Break up and serve.
