White Chocolate Irish Party Popcorn

Chocolate, salt, popcorn and sprinkles? Yes, please! Care to join me for some White Chocolate Luck of the Irish Party Popcorn?

I recently had a craving for something a little sweet and  a little salty; however, I didn’t want anything too over the top either. So, I got to thinking….  popcorn is always a win win.  Then I happened to stumble across a Party Popcorn recipe and thought I would give it a St. Patrick’s Day twist.

White Chocolate Irish Party Popcorn

I wish I could say it would bring you luck, but that’s not the case!  It will however, fill your sweet and salty craving.  Boom!

So, if you’re  hosting a St. Patty’s Day party — this just might be a simple, festive treat to keep in mind.  You can easily add peanuts and pretzels too!  There are a gazillion different Irish Popcorn recipes out there, but this one is super duper easy!

All you need is popcorn, white chocolate melts, salt and green sprinkles!  I used my air popper and Orville Redenbachers Popcorn.  Popping it plain allows you to add any flavor(s) to your liking — and did I mention less calories too?

Other recipes I’ve seen say to lay the popcorn on a jelly roll pan.  I found that gently stirring in a large bowl was much easier and less messy.

Melt the white candy melts in the microwave and carefully pour it over the popcorn.  Mix gently with spatula,  add green sprinkles and salt, to taste.  Voila!
