Did you know that October is National Popcorn Popping Month? It is, but let’s get real. Every month is popcorn month for me. It’s my favorite snack and I can’t watch a movie without my popcorn. To celebrate fall, I’ve created a simple White Chocolate Popcorn with Candy Corn M&M’s, Pecans and Pretzels.
The beauty of my White Chocolate Popcorn is that you can add anything you like. I happen to love salty, sweet and crunchy, all mixed together. It’s perfect for fall.
Pretzels and pecans add an extra crunch and who can resist sweet, salty and crunchy? It’s my favorite combination.
White Chocolate Popcorn with Candy Corn M&M’s, Pecans and Pretzels
My Salty, Sweet & Crunchy White Chocolate Popcorn is a breeze to make. I start with a bag of SkinnyPop. It’s my favorite popcorn and it’s already popped – perfection in a bag!
After melting the white chocolate almond bark, pour over popcorn and stir gently to combine. Stir in the remaining ingredients. Pour popcorn mixture onto a baking sheet and let cool in the fridge for 5-10 minutes.
Once the White Chocolate Popcorn has hardened, break into pieces, grab a good movie and enjoy!

This salty, sweet, and crunchy white chocolate popcorn is something I am for sure going to be making. I literally did not know there is candy corn M & M’s. Yummy!!! Thanks for sharing this awesome treat.
I wouldn’t know when to stop eating this mixture of popcorn! I guess once it’s all gone, I’d have to stop, wouldn’t I. Sounds and looks scrumptious. I agree, it simply isn’t possible to watch a movie without popcorn, ever.
This looks like a great Halloween party snack or family movie night snack. There’s more substance to it, but I know I’d find myself keep reaching for it lol.
All I can say while reading this is “Oh my” and wish I had a big bowl right now! And when you said break it it into pieces the temptation got worse!!! I gotta try this. And yes, every week is popcorn week over here – not months!!
I love treats made with popcorn. Starting out with Skinny Pop certainly makes this easy and quick! It sounds yummy.
We love popcorn around here too, especially during redbox movie nights on Tuesday’s. That popcorn looks good though!
we love Skinny Pop popcorn in our house–can’t keep it long enough-so I can only imagine if I added your inspiration to an already good thing-we’d be in real trouble! LOL
There are so many products in this that I want to try individually so this recipe is the perfect excuse to do just that. This would make such a great treat for the kids as well as the grown ups!
