The perfect treat to celebrate your love. This Valentine’s Day Popcorn is my kid’s favorite treat! It’s so easy to make and the perfect treat for a family movie night this time of year. Melted marshmallows covering the popcorn and then adding the Valentine’s M&M’s make this a super fun treat.
I’ve been making holiday themed Popcorn for years. This Valentine’s Day Popcorn is just like some of my other recipes like my Grinch Popcorn.
Making specialty popcorn like this is very easy, and really fun. The kids love to help making this, and it’s a great recipe to get them involved with.
How to make Valentine’s Day Popcorn:
Start by popping your popcorn and separating any loose kernels from the popcorn. Melt your butter and marshmallows together. Pour the melted marshmallows over the popcorn. Mix gently and add in the M&M’s. Spread out on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool and set.
Ingredients:
- Popped Popcorn
- Unsalted Butter
- Mini Marshmallows
- Valentine’s M&Ms candies
Directions:
One: Start by preparing a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. You will want to use this to lay your popcorn on and allow it to dry.
Two: Pop your popcorn and then place popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl.
- Tip: Store bought popcorn can be used as well. Just make sure it is not butter or any additional flavor. Try to get plain popcorn if you can.
Three: In a saucepan melt butter. Once melted add in mini marshmallows and melt making sure to stir constantly. Once melted pour over popcorn and gently mix.
- Tip: Try to do this fast, as marshmallows harden very quickly. You will not be able to melt them again once they harden.
Four: Once your popcorn is coated add it to your prepared baking sheet and add in M&Ms. Allow to cool then break popcorn into pieces and enjoy.
- Tip: Any other Valentine’s Candy you would work well too!
Homemade treats are great for any holiday!
As I said above, I love making treats for my family. This is a great snack to make and give to your loved ones.
I went to the dollar store and bought some little buckets to put this in to serve to the kids. I love being able to show my family love by making them enjoyable treats.
