Peppermint Bark Popcorn

Do you love peppermint bark??

Honestly, I find myself forgetting about peppermint bark all of the time because there are just so many good things to eat this time of year. And, as you may have noticed, I tend to have tunnel vision for the more main-event style desserts (like the pies and tarts and an upcoming flourless chocolate cake that I could eat for breakfast lunch and dinner...and dessert, of course). 

But the same thing happens to me every year with peppermint bark. Once I have my first bite of the season, I just think of all the time I've wasted by not having peppermint bark on my radar because it is so, so good!

And, I will admit, as much as I love all-out desserts, it's nice to have something a little less intensive to maybe put out for company as a little pre-dinner snack. Or to load onto your display of Christmas cookies. Or to just sit and sample by yourself. (Not that I've done this.)

(And by that, I mean I absolutely have done this, and sampled HEAVILY while recipe testing, and am even munching on some as I write this post.)

This Peppermint Bark Popcorn is the perfect sweet snack for the holiday season. It's regular, crowd-pleasing popcorn coated in melted white chocolate and candy cane bits, all drizzled with dark chocolate.

It's sweet, a little salty, and so festive looking!

Best of all, it's so simple to make! If you can pop popcorn and melt chocolate, you can have this ready in no time!
