Valentine’s Day Popcorn Recipe

To make this easy snack you’ll need 3 ingredients only:

Freshly popped popcorn
Conversation Hearts
Wilton Candy Melts (I used this cute pastel flavor)

popcorn ingredients

1. First, you’ll want to microwave your favorite popcorn flavor and prepare to your liking. (PopSecret is my go-to choice!)

2. Next, gather about 1 cup of chocolate candy melts and microwave for about 1 minute – stopping 30 seconds into the clock to give a good stir and break up the candy.

3. Lay out your popcorn in a pan to give an even coat of chocolate. Then you can combine the popcorn mixture into a large bowl and use a spoon to further distribute the chocolate.

4. Top with your favorite sweets – I love conversation hearts but you can add sprinkles if you enjoy those too!

The result is a delicious sweet and salty popcorn mixture. So easy and so yummy!

You can even pass the bowl and share with the kids if you’re feeling extra generous ;).
