1
Pop popcorn.
-
2
1/2 cup of unpopped popcorn yields approximately 10 cups of popped popcorn.
-
3
Make 24 cups of popcorn.
-
4
This is approximate-- not to worry if you have 22 cups or 28 cups-- it is a forgiving recipe.
-
5
Put candy canes into a food processor.
-
6
Finely crush.
-
7
Melt dipping wafers following the package instructions.
-
8
I used the microwave instructions-- very simple& easy.
-
9
Put popcorn into a large bowl-- you need a really big bowl-- I actually used 2 bowls.
-
10
Add melted dipping wafers to popcorn and stir to coat.
-
11
A gentle hand is a good idea-- Add crushed candy canes and gently mix.
-
12
Spread popcorn mixture onto paper lined cookie sheets.
-
13
I used non stick aluminum foil-- it worked well-- I used 2 cookie sheets.
-
14
Place cookie sheets in frig for approximately 30 minutes or until coating hardens-- I had 2 cookie sheets and not enough frig space so I put 1 cookie sheet in the frig and the other cookie sheet in the freezer (for 15 minutes only) to harden the coating-- Remove from frig/freezer-- break into pieces.
