Ingredients
Scale

Candy Mix-ins
- ½ cup M&M’s or your favorite candy bar, chopped if needed
- ½ cup Halloween candy, chopped if needed
Optional Decorations
- Colored melted chocolate wafers (for drizzling)

Instructions
- Prepare the Popcorn and White Chocolate: Lay a piece of wax paper on a baking sheet. In a large bowl, combine 8-10 cups of popped popcorn with 1 cup of melted white chocolate. Stir thoroughly to coat the popcorn evenly with the chocolate.
- Add Candy Mix-ins: Gently fold in ½ cup of M&M’s and ½ cup of chopped Halloween candy to the popcorn and white chocolate mixture until well combined.
- Set and Harden: Evenly spread the coated popcorn and candy mixture onto the wax paper in a single layer. If desired, drizzle colored melted chocolate wafers on top and sprinkle with festive sprinkles. Allow the mixture to cool and harden completely at room temperature.
- Serve: Once hardened, break the popcorn candy into bite-sized pieces and serve or store in an airtight container for freshness.
Notes
- Use freshly popped popcorn for best texture; avoid microwave popcorn with butter or salt added.
- White chocolate can be melted using a microwave or double boiler for smooth consistency.
- Optional drizzles and sprinkles add festive color but can be omitted if desired.
- Store the finished popcorn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain crunchiness.
- Ensure candies are chopped into small pieces for easy mixing and eating.
