If you’re looking for the ultimate holiday snack that disappears faster than you can make it, this Christmas Munch recipe is it. Sweet, crunchy, creamy, and absolutely irresistible — it’s the kind of treat people can’t stop eating by the handful.
Here’s how to make it:
Ingredients:
- 8 cups of popped popcorn (plain or lightly salted)
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or melting wafers
- 1 tablespoon coconut oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- ½ cup mini marshmallows
- ½ cup pretzel pieces (for crunch)
- ½ cup festive M&Ms or colored sprinkles
- A pinch of sea salt
Instructions:
- Pop your popcorn and place it in a large mixing bowl. Make sure to remove any unpopped kernels.
- Melt the white chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl with the coconut oil, heating in 20-second intervals and stirring until smooth.
- Pour the melted chocolate over the popcorn (like in the picture!) and gently toss until every piece is coated.
- Add the mix-ins — marshmallows, pretzels, and M&Ms — while the coating is still warm so everything sticks together.
- Spread it out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper and let it cool for about 15–20 minutes.
- Once set, break it apart into clusters and sprinkle a pinch of sea salt for that perfect balance.
The result? A magical mix of salty-sweet crunch that tastes like the holidays in every bite. Perfect for movie nights, parties, or gifting in little bags tied with ribbons.
✨ Warning: it’s dangerously addictive — you’ll make it once, and it’ll become your yearly tradition!
