Leprecorn


Young and old alike are going to find this colorful popcorn a delight! The young, that is, if they can manage to get their hands on it, because, trust me when I tell you that it is addictive, and you won’t want to share. Employing the use of microwave popcorn, this goes together in a flash. It is colorful, tasty, and makes a perfect treat for St. Patrick’s Day. I like to put a colorful tin of it at each place setting of my traditional St. Patrick’s Day dinner.
Leprecorn

1 bag of microwave popcorn
1 cup mini pretzels
1 cup broken pecans
1/2 cup white chocolate chips
1/2 package
Wilton candy melts, green

Pop popcorn according to microwave directions. When it is cool enough to handle, empty it out onto a sheet pan, spread it out, and pick through for unpopped kernels. You are not going to want to chomp down on one of those! Empty popcorn into a large mixing bowl, and add pretzels, pecans, and white chocolate chips. Melt candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl on high for 1-2 minutes, stirring at 30-second intervals until melted.  Pour over mixture, toss lightly to cover, and empty onto sheet pan to dry.
