Melt In Your Mouth White Chocolate Popcorn

While wandering Smiths, Kaitlyn and I noticed the asiles adorned with everything Christmas. Trees, lights, peppermint, evergreen and red and green. "It's not Christmas yet!" I huffed, "They completely skipped Thanksgiving!" "Ashley, you just have to embrace it. It's Christmas SOON enough," Kaitlyn answered resolutely.

SO, in the spirit of embracing "Christmas SOON enough," here is our VERY easy recipe for Melt In Your Mouth White Chocolate Popcorn. Enjoy!

You will need:

1 1/2 bags of unsalted, unbuttered microwave popcorn

Mini M&Ms (red and green if you are truly in the spirit of Christmas)

1 pound white chocolate (or vanilla candy coating)

What you will do:

1. Pop the popcorn. Remove all unpopped kernels and throw them away.

2. Place HALF of the popped popcorn in a large bowl. Set the other half aside.

3. Melt the white chocolate or vanilla candy coating in the microwave.

4. Pour half of the melted white chocolate over the first half of the popped popcorn. Stir until evenly coated.

5. Add the remaining popped popcorn to the bowl. Add the rest of the melted white chocolate and stir until evenly coated.

6. Spread popcorn onto wax paper or aluminum foil to dry. Sprinkle with mini M&Ms while still warm and while white chocolate is still melty.

7. Once white chocolate is dry, ENJOY! :)

Tis the season...or SOON enough, right. :)

With Love,
