- Baking Sheet. This is the rectangular pan placed inside the oven when baking.
- Large Bowl. This will serve as the container of the popcorns.
- Rubber Spatula. This will be the mixing tool.
- Piping bags or Ziploc bags. This is where candy melts will be placed for the toppings.
On the other hand, the ingredients are also to be prepared. And, for this recipe, we need the following:
- Popcorn. One full-sized bag.
- Pink chocolate candy melts. ¾ cups.
- Red candy melts. ¼ cups
- Chocolate candy melts or almond bark. ¼ cups
- Valentines sprinkles
How to Make the Valentine’s Day Popcorn
This recipe is one of the easiest to prepare. So, here are the steps to follow to create one:
Firstly, pop the popcorn according to package instructions and remove all of the kernels. Then, microwave the pink candy melts in 30-second increments until fully melted about 3 times.
Secondly, spoon over the popcorn and give it a good toss. Do this either in a bowl or on a parchment-lined baking sheet and keep on tossing the popcorn until covered. Let sit for 10 to 15 minutes.
Thirdly, add white and red candy melts to separate piping bags and warm those up inside of the piping bag, as before.
Lastly, transfer the popcorn from the baking sheet to the serving dish and squeeze outlines of red and white chocolate all over the popcorn and immediately top with sprinkles. Just let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes and serve and enjoy.
Also, you can pack them in cute packaging and give them as your Valentine’s present.
