I thought once the holidays past I would not be in the position to be making treats but here again I find myself in a situation that I need an easy and last-minute Valentine’s Day treat. This time it is for the 60 employees at my daughter’s school.

No, I don’t have to make everything just a contribution. Not feeling in the mood to bake anything, I decided on this super easy and very addicting White Chocolate Popcorn, with Valentine’s Day twist.

Valentine’s Day Treat– White Chocolate Popcorn

This is such a fun and easy treat that you really don’t need a special holiday to make it. You can also use colored chocolate melts in whatever theme you might want and of course switch out the sprinkles and the M & M’s.

This would be a great recipe to go inside the You are a Pop-ular teacher or You really make me Pop Valentines. 

I made the mistake of not taking out the unpopped kernels while I was melting the chocolate so I had to fish it out later. A little messy, so be sure and do this before adding any chocolate.

The kids will enjoy making this with you just expect to have a lot missing.

It would be adorable packaged up in small bags or you can use any type of container that might fit the holiday you are making this for. 

Or as presented in a big bowl for a party,

Either way, you may want to make a double batch of the white chocolate popcorn mix.  Here is our Christmas Popcorn Gift Idea
