Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. Prep the Popcorn: Begin by air-popping or microwaving enough popcorn to fill a large mixing bowl. Allow it to cool and break apart clumps.
  2. Melt Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl or double boiler, melt the white chocolate in 30-second intervals until smooth.
  3. Coat Popcorn: Drizzle the melted chocolate over the popcorn, mixing thoroughly for an even coating.
  4. Add Extras: Fold in candy eyes, gummy worms, and candy corn to create a colorful mixture.
  5. Set: Spread the mixture on baking sheets lined with parchment and let it cool until the chocolate hardens for about 15-20 minutes.
  6. Shape and Decorate: Optionally shape the popcorn into balls and add creative touches like licorice stems.
  7. Serve and Enjoy: Present your Witches’ Brew Popcorn in festive bowls for your Halloween celebrations.
