Ingredients

  • 10 cups popped popcorn plain, air-popped, or lightly salted
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or melting wafers
  • 1/2 cup red candy melts or add red gel food coloring to white chocolate
  • 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
  • 2 tablespoons powdered sugar
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 cup red decorating gel or red candy melts for 'blood' drizzle

Instructions

  • Place popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
  • In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate and red candy melts together in 30-second intervals, stirring until smooth.
  • Stir in cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and vanilla until combined (this gives the 'red velvet' flavor).
  • Pour the chocolate mixture over popcorn and toss until evenly coated.
  • Spread popcorn onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
  • Drizzle red decorating gel or melted red candy melts across the top to create a bloody effect.
  • Allow to set at room temperature (or refrigerate briefly) until chocolate hardens.
  • Break into clusters and serve in bowls, paper cones, or spooky containers.
