Christmas Popcorn + 20 Holiday Treats
Welcome to another holiday blog hop! Today I’m joining other bloggers to bring you treats to make for the upcoming season. I’m sharing a super easy, super yummy Christmas Popcorn recipe.
I’d like to give a shout out to Kristen at Ella Claire & Co. for organizing today’s mouth-watering event. In addition to my Christmas popcorn, you’ll find links to 20 holiday treats at the end of this post.
To make Christmas popcorn, you melt white chocolate, mix it with popped popcorn in a big bowl, add red and green candy coated chocolate, and spread it in a pan to cool.
If you’re a fan of sweet and salty snacks, you could also add small twist pretzels. Christmas popcorn is so easy to make and doesn’t take a lot of time. And I can verify that it’s hubby-approved!
On another note – I have a new holiday shop on my blog. I’ve scoured some of my favorite stores to curate a fun selection of Christmas trees, wreaths, ornaments, stockings, pillows, throws, and holiday tableware. I hope you’ll take a minute to check out my holiday shop!
And now for the Christmas Popcorn recipe …
