“Popcorn mixed with white candy coating and crushed peppermint candy canes makes a quick, simple treat that’s a little different for the cookie tray. Package it up in a pretty cellophane bag for a sweet gift. This recipe uses an air popper to make popcorn without added oil.”

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup unpopped popcorn
4 ounces vanilla-flavored confectioners’ coating, or as needed
6 peppermint candy canes, crushed

DIRECTIONS:

  1. Using an air popper, pop the popcorn, place into a large bowl, and discard unpopped kernels. Melt the confectioners’ coating according to the package directions.
  2. Pour the melted coating over the popcorn, and sprinkle the crushed candy canes over the mixture. Using your hands, work the candy coating and crushed candy canes all through the popcorn. Let the mixture cool, and break apart into bite-size pieces.
