It feels wrong to write about something as frivolous as food, but I’m forcing myself to do so. I hope that it doesn’t come across as callous or uncaring … I’m far from either of those things when it comes to last week’s horrific events.
I’m also pretty sure you’re not here to read about that. So: today I’m talking about popcorn. Christmas party popcorn, to be exact.
When I first saw party popcorn from the wonderful blogger Amy of She Wears Many Hats, I thought it was a revelation. For one, it’s pretty much the cutest party snack ever, with those adorable, cheery sprinkles. And slightly salty popcorn with candy or chocolate coating? Yes, I think I will.
And then I made a batch and was blown away by how stinkin’ easy it was. Seriously, this stuff takes hardly any work.
Then my guy tried it and moaned a little and cursed me for bringing crack into our home.
So, yeah, we’re sold on party popcorn.
This version is made with eggnog-flavored candy melts and sprinkles in Christmas colors, but the beauty of this stuff is that the sky is the limit. Popcorn, candy melts or white chocolate, sprinkles and bam. Adorable party food.
