This Easy Halloween White Chocolate Popcorn Mix with Sprinkles is a quick, festive treat that brings back childhood memories. It’s perfect for Halloween parties, school events, or cozy movie nights, combining crunchy popcorn with creamy white chocolate and colorful sprinkles.

Ingredients

Scale
  • ½ cup (100g) popcorn kernels
  • 2 tablespoons (30ml) vegetable oil
  • 12 ounces (340g) white chocolate chips or melting wafers
  • 1 tablespoon (15ml) coconut oil or vegetable shortening
  • ½ cup (80g) Halloween sprinkles
  • Optional: a few drops orange food coloring gel

Instructions

  1. Pop the popcorn: Place a large pot over medium-high heat with 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil. Add 3 popcorn kernels and cover. When they pop, add the remaining ½ cup of kernels, cover, and shake gently. Once popping slows to 2 seconds between pops, remove from heat. Pour into a large mixing bowl and remove any unpopped kernels.
  2. Melt the white chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 12 ounces of white chocolate chips and 1 tablespoon of coconut oil. Microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each, until smooth. Alternatively, use a double boiler. Stir in orange food coloring gel if desired.
  3. Coat the popcorn: Pour the melted white chocolate over the popcorn. Gently fold with a rubber spatula until evenly coated.
  4. Add the sprinkles: While the chocolate is still wet, sprinkle the Halloween sprinkles over the popcorn and fold gently to distribute.
  5. Spread and set: Pour the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet and spread into an even layer. Let sit at room temperature for 30-45 minutes until the chocolate is firm.
  6. Break and serve: Once set, break into smaller clusters and serve.

Notes

For best results, use plain, air-popped popcorn (not buttered). Work quickly when adding sprinkles so they stick. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Do not refrigerate.
