Cookies & Cream Popcorn

Last week I posted a technique for popping popcorn on the stove-top. Today’s recipe is a sweet, sweet way to use that popped popcorn. I actually got the idea when I saw a bag of cookies and cream popcorn in the store. It was a 7 ounce bag for $8… I could definitely make that at home for much cheaper. You can too!

By the way, I just realized that I surpassed 300 posts a few days ago. Yay! That’s a lot of food, rundowns, recipes, and photos. Thanks to anyone and everyone who reads this blog, you have no idea how much each subscriber, comment, and page view means to me. Here’s to 300 more posts.

Recipe Rundown
Taste: Can’t beat that sweet, crave-worthy combination of cookies and cream.
Texture: The popcorn and cookies are crunchy which the chocolate is rich and smooth.
Ease: Super duper easy.
Appearance: How could you not want to grab a handful?
Pros: Perfect sweet snack.
Cons: None.
Would I make this again? Mhmm.

Cookies & Cream Popcorn

Ingredients:

1/3 cup popcorn kernels, popped
10-15 chocolate sandwich cookies, chopped
6 ounces white chocolate, chopped

Directions:

Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or a silicone baking mat. Place popcorn and chopped cookies in a large bowl. In a small microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate in 30 second bursts, stirring between bursts, until smooth. Pour white chocolate over popcorn and cookies. Stir until chocolate is well-distributed. Pour mixture onto prepared baking sheet in one layer and let set.

    I'm pretty sure my husband would flip if I made this. His favorite snack is popcorn, and favorite ice cream is cookies and cream. Perfection!

    I just made caramel corn and realized I had forgotten how addicting and fun popcorn kicked up can be. This is SO on my list.

    You know, what I first saw this I couldn't imagine liking sweet cookies mixed with popcorn – though it definitely looks like something that would be right up my boyfriend's alley! – but the more I look at this the more I find myself craving it! Will have to make and see :) Definitely looks like it would make a cute Christmas gift!
