Something you might not know about me – I’m a little bit Irish – so I love St. Patrick’s Day 🙂 It’s fun! Soooo I had to take some of the minty M&M’s I had in the cabinet & make one of my most favorite quick snacks. Minty Shamrock M&M Popcorn is so easy to make & my kids went nuts for it with that hint of mint. Gotta love M&M’s for keeping every holiday fun with all their different flavors & varieties.
A little popcorn, a little mint M&M & then the white chocolate. YUM!
It goes together so quickly – & gone almost just as fast.
Minty Shamrock M&M Popcorn
Ingredients
- 1 regular size bag microwave popcorn-popped
- 1 bag white chocolate chips
- 1-1/2 tbsp shortening
- 1-1/2 cups Mint M&M's
- 1/2 cup green milk chocolate M&M's
Instructions
-
Prepare popcorn-pour in large bowl-set aside
-
In glass bowl add white chocolate chips & shortening.
-
Nest bowl in a pan filled half way with water & heat over medium heat.
-
Stir constantly until chocolate is in a very liquid state & smooth. Do not over heat.
-
Remove from heat- pour immediately over popcorn.
-
Stir in until it's coated & well combined.
-
Pour in M&M's & mix in. (Best to do this in small batches- you want some of the M&M's to get melted a bit from the heat of the white chocolate. Then you want to add more as it cools otherwise they will sink to the bottom.)

uh-oh, I’m going to have to make this one. Popcorn is my go-to snack and what a fun way to dress it up. Pinning this one to my popcorn board.
ohhh my little one loves pop corn! I guess this will be interesting to do for him.

I’ve never tried many sweet popcorns, but these all look so delicious! I might have to make a batch of everything this weekend, ha ha ha!
Chocolate covered popcorn never lasts very long around me! Love the pop of green from those mint M&M’s 🙂 Pinning!
Awwww thank you – so appreciate that.
Yum! This looks amazing! Pinning! xo
Thank you SO MUCH Jamielyn – it certainly was so good. Quite addicting- I had to have someone physically remove the bowl from my hands or I may have eaten the whole thing. 🙂
Pinning!
This popcorn is just awesome Gina! I actually have a bag of those M&Ms sitting on my desk right now 🙂 Pinned!
