This spooky Halloween snack features crispy popcorn coated in melted red velvet chocolate and drizzled with red syrup to create a festive and delicious treat perfect for Halloween parties or movie nights.

Ingredients

Scale

Popcorn

  • 10 cups popped popcorn

Chocolate Coating

  • 1/2 cup red velvet chocolate melts

Decoration

  • 1/4 cup red syrup (grenadine or red icing)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Baking Sheet: Line a baking sheet with parchment paper to prevent the popcorn from sticking and make cleanup easier.
  2. Spread the Popcorn: Evenly spread the popped popcorn over the parchment-lined baking sheet to create a single layer.
  3. Melt Chocolate: Place the red velvet chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in 30-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until the chocolate is fully melted and smooth.
  4. Coat Popcorn: Drizzle the melted red velvet chocolate evenly over the popcorn. Gently stir or toss the popcorn to ensure each piece is coated with the chocolate.
  5. Add Syrup: Carefully drizzle the red syrup, such as grenadine or red icing, over the chocolate-coated popcorn to create a ‘bloody’ effect that’s perfect for Halloween.
  6. Set Chocolate: Allow the coated popcorn to sit at room temperature or in the refrigerator until the chocolate hardens and sets, making it easier to serve and enjoy.

Notes

  • Use parchment paper to prevent sticking and for easier cleanup.
  • If you don’t have red velvet chocolate melts, you can use white chocolate with red food coloring.
  • The red syrup adds a fun, festive touch but can be omitted if preferred.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container to maintain freshness for up to 3 days.
  • For added texture, consider mixing in some nuts or candy pieces.
