Ingredients
- 1 bag microwave popcorn butter flavored
- 1/2 cup white chocolate chips
- 1 teaspoon coconut oil see notes
- red and green sprinkles
Instructions
- Pop the popcorn according to package directions.
- Spread popcorn on 1-2 parchment lined baking sheets to allow plenty of surface area for the chocolate drizzle.
- Add the white chocolate chips and coconut oil to a microwave safe bowl and microwave until smooth and melted, stirring every 20-30 seconds. This took 1 minute 30 seconds in my microwave.
- Use a spoon to drizzle the melted white chocolate over the popcorn and immediately add sprinkles.
- Let sit until white chocolate has hardened, about 2 hours.
- Store in an airtight container for up to 1 week.

Notes
We prefer to use coconut oil to thin out the chocolate chips while melting, but you may also use butter or shortening. Butter is more likely to cause the chocolate to seize, so we try to avoid when possible, but it does work in a pinch.
We use buttered and salted popcorn, because we like the sweet and salty flavors. Use any variety of popcorn you prefer.
