This easy red velvet popcorn recipe is perfect for Halloween parties, movie nights, dessert tables, and spooky snack boards when you want a fun treat that looks dramatic and tastes delicious.
Ingredients
10 cups popped popcorn
1 cup red candy melts
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
3 tablespoons red velvet cake mix
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons Halloween sprinkles
1/4 cup mini marshmallows, optional
Instructions
1. Pop the popcorn and place it in a very large bowl or spread it across a baking sheet. Remove any unpopped kernels.
2. Add the red candy melts, white chocolate chips, and butter to a microwave-safe bowl. Heat in 20-second bursts, stirring each time, until fully melted and smooth.
3. Stir in the red velvet cake mix and salt until the coating looks glossy and evenly blended.
4. Pour the coating over the popcorn gradually, tossing gently so the popcorn gets covered without being crushed.
5. Sprinkle the Halloween sprinkles over the popcorn while the coating is still warm and sticky.
6. Fold in the mini marshmallows if using, once the coating has cooled slightly.
7. Spread the popcorn out in an even layer and let it cool completely until set.
8. Break into clusters and serve or store in an airtight container.
Notes
This popcorn is best the day it is made because the coating stays crisp and glossy.
Be gentle while mixing so the popcorn keeps its shape and does not crumble.
If you want a richer finish, drizzle a little extra melted white chocolate over the cooled popcorn.
