    It's no secret that I love to bake. My kids know this and will politely let me know when the cookie jar is empty. I like to make treats and they like to eat them. It's a win-win situation!  I especially like holiday baking and all of the fun seasonal add-ins that come with it! Like holiday colored M&Ms in all of our favorite flavors!

    Today I am going to share two delicious holiday recipes that are perfect for sharing with friends. One is an old family favorite, and one is new! I will also share the easiest way EVER to package them up.

    By the time Santa gets to our home he is sometimes tired of milk and cookies. The Santa who visits our home likes popcorn. This works out great because we are popcorn fanatics. So here is Santa's White Chocolate Popcorn Recipe! It's so delicious and addicting. We switched it up this time by adding M&Ms Holiday Baking Minis.

    1 c. unpopped popcorn kernels

    1 package white chocolate chips

    1 package M&Ms Holiday Baking Minis

    Sweet, salty, and crunchy. Santa's white chocolate popcorn is absolutely the perfect treat to leave out on Christmas Eve!

    (Look at those cute little fingers. She was more than eager to "help" me with all of the candies.)

    Prepare your popcorn in whatever way you like. I use my good old fashioned air popper. It will take 2 batches to prepare the entire cup of kernels.

    Melt white chocolate chips in a microwaveable bowl for 45 seconds. Stir and continue to microwave in 30 seconds until smooth.

    Pour over popcorn and stir to coat evenly.

    Spread popcorn onto a large surface (counter/table) covered in parchment or waxed paper. Sprinkle with M&Ms.

    Let sit until chocolate begins to set, about 10 minutes. Sprinkle lightly with sea salt, if desired.

    Sample a few pieces just to make sure it's perfect. And it will be!

    Store in a perfectly sized GLAD® storage container for up to 7 days.
