Green Slimed Popcorn

Beaulah loves the color green.

She feels like it compliments her skin tones.

I would agree, they are both green!

(I bet you didn't even know that her little bag

has a lid that comes off and you can put

treats in it.  So she can carry around both treats

and cookies.)

And yes, she knows she is missing 

a few teeth, but she thinks it fits her 

whole persona!

She was messing around in the kitchen

the other day and came up with this recipe

for Green Slimed Popcorn.

I like to think of it as 

White Chocolate Covered Popcorn

with a greenish tint.

This is one of those "I can make it in under 10 minutes"

treats.  It is great for neighbor treats.

Green Slimed Popcorn

or 

Green Chocolate Covered Popcorn

1 regular bag microwave popcorn

(If you choose to air pop the popcorn

you need to add a salt as it won't taste 

as good without the sweet/salty combo.)

1 1/4 C. white chocolate coating discs

Americolor's Neon Green Food Coloring Gel

Place popcorn bag in microwave and while it 

is popping, place the coating discs in a microwave

safe bowl.  When popcorn is done, remove it and

place chocolate discs in microwave.  Melt for one

minute, then stir whether it looks like it is melted or

not (this keeps it from scorching).  Melt it for another 30 

seconds, then stir again.  If it needs any more time, 

microwave it in 10 second intervals.  Remove and

stir until smooth.  Add green food coloring gel until

you get the color of green you want.

Place warm popcorn in large bowl then pour the

melted green chocolate over the popcorn and

toss gently over and over until you have completely

coated the popcorn.

Place a sheet of parchment paper on a large

baking sheet and pour the chocolate covered

popcorn out on the pan.  Let cool until the chocolate

is firm.

 (Chocolate covered popcorn is cooling here.)

Serve as desired.  I had these cupcake

wrappers that I bought last year from

Wilton and I placed short plastic cups

inside the wrapper and served them

like this for a dinner.   We called it 

their "green salad".

Everyone wants to get their hands on this 

yummy treat!

I have to warn you that it is 

WICKEDLY ADDICTIVE.

The salty popcorn with the sweet and silky

"chocolate" is a great combination.

Of course you could make this with any

color added, orange, black, or red and green

for Christmas.  It is so yummy and so easy.
