Instructions

  1. Prepare Your Popcorn: Pop the popcorn kernels using an air popper or microwave according to package instructions. Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl.
  2. Melt the White Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips in short increments of 30 seconds, stirring after each until smooth. Be careful not to overheat.
  3. Add Color to Your Chocolate: Stir in a few drops of green food coloring into the melted white chocolate until you achieve your desired shade of green.
  4. Combine and Coat: Pour the melted chocolate over the popped popcorn and gently toss with a spatula until every kernel is evenly coated.
  5. Sprinkle on Some Fun: While the chocolate is still warm, add colorful sprinkles evenly over the popcorn mix for maximum visual appeal.
  6. Let It Set: Spread the Frankenstein Popcorn onto baking sheets lined with parchment paper for about 15-20 minutes or until the chocolate has set completely. Transfer to bowls or bags for serving.
