Ingredients
Scale
Dry Ingredients
- 4 cups popcorn, popped
- 2 cups pretzels
- 1 cup red candies (such as red M&M’s or similar)
- 1 cup blue candies (such as blue M&M’s or similar)
Chocolate
- 1 cup white chocolate chips or white baking chocolate
Instructions
- Mix Dry Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the popcorn, pretzels, red candies, and blue candies. Gently toss to evenly distribute all the ingredients.
- Melt White Chocolate: Melt the white chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring between each until smooth and fully melted.
- Drizzle with Chocolate: Pour the melted white chocolate over the mixed dry ingredients. Use a spatula or spoon to gently toss and coat the mix evenly with the white chocolate drizzle.
- Cool Until Set: Spread the mixture out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Allow the chocolate to cool and harden completely at room temperature, approximately 30 minutes, or refrigerate for 15-20 minutes if you want to speed up the setting process.
- Serve and Store: Once set, break any large clusters if necessary. Serve immediately or store the snack mix in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week.
Notes
- You can substitute the candies with any red and blue colored candy of your choice.
- Use white chocolate chips specifically made for melting to avoid graininess.
- For quicker setting, refrigerate the mix but be sure to store it later at room temperature to maintain texture.
- This snack mix is great for parties, picnics, and holiday celebrations like Independence Day.
