Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn is the perfect Valentine's day treat! Only THREE ingredients and only minutes to toss together!
Valentine's desserts can be so easy to make and so delicious! This year we are servings SLOW COOKER LAVA CAKE for dessert, PINK OMBRE PANCAKES for breakfast, and STRAWBERRY COCONUT COCKTAILS!
Y'all are going to LOVE this Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn! It's a salty sweet mix of kettle corn, chocolate, and M&M's...what's not to like? It only has THREE ingredients, and you can whip it up in just a few minutes, then you let it set, and voila - done!
Where to find ingredients for Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn
- I found the Valentine colored M&M's at the grocery store in their holiday aisle, but you could really use any for this recipe. I like the pink, red, and white mix to keep with the Valentine's theme, but you don't need to get too caught up on that if you can't find them.
- As for the chocolate, I just used candy melts from Hobby Lobby, but I think they also carry them at craft stores and probably even big box stores like Walmart. You can also make your life easier by just ordering them off Amazon!
- I used kettle corn popcorn, which you can find in any grocery store.
Why Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn tastes so good:
- The trick to this recipe is to use KETTLE CORN! It really adds a nice touch to the flavor combination, so trust me on this one.
- The sweet and salty combo pairs perfectly with the chocolate and M&M's.
- I've made this popcorn countless times using kettle corn, and people always ask me for the recipe; they can never believe how simple it is either. Check out the easy how-to video below for proof.
How to make Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn:
- Pop the kettle corn and spread it out on a baking sheet.
- Melt the chocolates, then drizzle them over the top of the popcorn.
- Sprinkle the M&M's over the top of the chocolate.
- Pop it into the fridge and let the Valentine's Day Chocolate M&M Popcorn set.
- Break it apart into pieces and serve.
Holiday variations on the popcorn:
- Use green and orange chocolate or rainbow chocolate and serve this for St. Patricks day.
- This red and green Christmas popcorn is always a hit!
- Fourth of the July? Try red white and blue chocolate and M&M's for America's birthday.
- Need a Halloween Party Treat? Use yellow, orange, and black chocolates and M&M's for a spooky take on this chocolate popcorn. You could even add candy eyes!
