White Chocolate Peppermint Popcorn
Ingredients
- 4 tbsp coconut oil
- ½ cup unpopped popcorn kernels
- ¼ cup granulated sugar
- ½ tsp kosher salt
- 4 oz white chocolate melted
- ½ tsp peppermint oil
- ¼ cup crushed peppermint candy
Instructions
- Prepare the popcorn. Place a stovetop popper over medium-high heat and add the oil. A high-heat oil with a high smoking point is essential so it can withstand the temperature without burning the popcorn. Add a couple of popcorn kernels. When the kernels pop, you know the oil is at the correct temperature. Add the rest of the kernels, then stir to coat the kernels with the oil and add the sugar. Stir constantly. After a few minutes, the kernels will start to pop. Keep stirring until you don’t hear any more pops. Dump the popcorn onto a baking sheet, spread it into an even layer, and sprinkle with kosher salt while the popcorn is still warm.4 tbsp coconut oil, ½ cup unpopped popcorn kernels, ¼ cup granulated sugar, ½ tsp kosher salt

Can you tell me the name of your stovetop popcorn maker.
Hi Nancy! My popcorn maker is a Lindy’s, but I’m not sure they make them any longer. This Whirley Pop is very similar: https://rstyle.me/+CwERrPhGMxjl1BdShr2XsQ
