🎄 Festive green popcorn that brings the magic of the Grinch to your holiday celebrations
🍿 Sweet and salty treat that’s perfect for movie nights and holiday parties

  • Total Time: 15 minutes
  • Yield: 8-10 servings

Ingredients

– 10 cups popped popcorn [the base of the snack]

– Salt to taste [seasons the hot popcorn to balance sweet marshmallow]

– 3 tablespoons sweet cream salted butter [melts into the marshmallow for richness]

– 3 cups mini marshmallows [creates the sticky, sweet coating]

– Blue and yellow food coloring [mix yellow until bright, then a tiny drop of blue to make green]

– 1/2 cup mini marshmallows [for topping, adds texture and a cute snowy look]

– Red candies (approximately 1/2 cup) [for topping, decorative accents that look like a Grinch-sized grin]

– 8 cups plain popped popcorn

– 4 cups mini marshmallows

– 3 tablespoons butter

– green food coloring (about 10-15 drops)

– 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract

– 1-2 teaspoons sea salt

– red candy hearts or sprinkles [optional add-ins]

– 1/4 cup popcorn kernels

– 2 tablespoons oil

– 1-2 teaspoons sea salt or popcorn salt

Notes

🍿 Use freshly popped stove-top popcorn for best taste, but air-popped or microwave without butter flavoring works
🧂 Salt generously on hot popcorn for balanced sweet and salty flavor
🎂 Remove all un-popped kernels to avoid unpleasant bites
