How To Make Monster Popcorn Snack Mix:
-
Pop the popcorn and gather everything in one place.
Microwave or bagged works great but I really like to pop the kernels on the stove to get a plain popcorn for this snack mix -
Place a piece of parchment paper over a baking sheet.
-
Pour popped popcorn in a single layer on the parchment paper.
-
Melt candy melts (30-second intervals in the microwave, stirring in between) and drizzle over the top.
-
Use a spoon or tongs to mix the popcorn and candy melts together. Spread into a single layer.
-
Quickly add candy eyeballs and sprinkles before the chocolate sets.
-
Let the popcorn set at room temperature, then break into pieces and serve.
Tips & Tricks:
- Package it in cellophane bags tied with spooky ribbon for party favors or classroom
- Want extra crunch? Toss in pretzels, candy corn, or Halloween M&M’s.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 5 days—but it probably won’t last that long!
This Monster Popcorn Snack Mix is scary simple to make and monstrously addictive. It’s proof that sometimes the best Halloween treats don’t require any tricks—just a little creativity and a whole lot of sprinkles!
Pin it, share it, and don’t forget to make an extra batch… for the monsters under your bed.
