How to make this white chocolate covered popcorn
First you’ll need plain popcorn. You can pop the kernels yourself—using a hot air popcorn maker, a covered pot on the stove, in the microwave—or purchase a bag of plain unflavored popcorn.
Next, melt your favorite flavor of chocolate. Drizzle it over the popcorn. Allow to dry and you’re done.
But, since it’s New Years Eve, let’s make it a little more interesting and add some fun *adult* ingredients.
Alcohol and fun, colorful sprinkle stars and sanding sugar too.
Rum chocolate
Mixing alcohol into the melted chocolate helps elevate this snack to a fun adult* party treat. Creating a sweet, crunchy, rum flavored alcohol popcorn. Save a spot on your dessert table for this alcohol flavored popcorn.
**This recipe is for adults 21+ years. Please make sure your guests are ≥ legal drinking age before serving this liquor popcorn recipe—or any other boozy party snacks.**

However substituting the white chocolate can alter the taste. Making this boozy snack less sweet. Still delicious, though. Plus it looks great.
