Ingredients

• 10 cups Popped popcorn (unsalted and unbuttered)
• 1 cup White chocolate chips
• 1 cup Semi-sweet chocolate chips
• 1 cup Holiday-themed sprinkles
• 1 cup Mini pretzel twists (optional)
• 1 cup Red and green candy-coated chocolates
• 0.5 teaspoons Sea salt

Directions

Step 1

1. Prepare a large baking sheet by lining it with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat.

Step 2

2. In a large mixing bowl, combine the popped popcorn and mini pretzel twists (if using). Spread the mixture evenly on the prepared baking sheet.

Step 3

3. Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 15-second intervals, stirring each time, until the chocolate is smooth and fully melted.

Step 4

4. Drizzle the melted white chocolate over the popcorn and pretzels using a spoon. Gently toss with a spatula to coat the mixture evenly.

Step 5

5. Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the same way as the white chocolate. Drizzle the semi-sweet chocolate over the coated popcorn mixture for a marbled effect.

Step 6

6. While the chocolate is still warm, quickly sprinkle the holiday-themed sprinkles, candy-coated chocolates, and sea salt evenly over the popcorn mixture.

Step 7

7. Allow the popcorn to cool and the chocolate to set completely at room temperature for 20–30 minutes. For faster cooling, place the tray in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes.

Step 8

8. Once the chocolate is set, break the popcorn mixture into small clusters and transfer to a serving bowl or festive packaging for gifting.

Step 9

9. Enjoy your Holiday Popcorn as a festive snack or share it as a thoughtful homemade gift!
