Halloween Popcorn Mix
What’s more enticing than a big bowl party popcorn? A spooky Halloween Popcorn Mix that’s sweet and salty!
It’s officially October, I’m now allowed to post ghoulish treats to my heart’s content without backlash. Eeeeeeee hee hee hee hee hee!
I do get a little excited this time of year. The moment I feel a chill in the air, I’m ready to dig out my Halloween decorations, and put on my tall creepy hat and feathered boa.
I really don’t see why I can’t strut around in my Halloween hat all year long, but Lt. Dan won’t let me.
…Something about special occasions and dignity, I don’t know.
Anyway, this is the month of conspicuous costumes, frightful fun, and dreadfully decorative dishes. We’re already planning all the menacing munchies we’ll serve Halloween night and this popcorn mix is on the list.
Halloween Popcorn Mixย is salty-sweet, super crunchy, and loaded with everything I love.
To make this Halloween popcorn mix, simply coat dry salted popcorn with melted candy coating and sprinkle with festive sprinkles. Then toss in your favorite Halloween candies.
Voila!
It’s aย party popcorn treat that everyone will love! Wrapped in cellophane bags, this Halloween Popcorn Mix also makes great edible gifts.
Now onto the decorating… whereย are myย goblin heads, drooling rats, and fake blood?

I love the cool, crisp weather, the leaves turning, and the white tailed deer that can be seen in abundance. At least, I did when I lived in Michigan, now I live in Arizona. Now I’m just glad it’s no longer 115 outside!!

I love getting dressed up with my kids and going trick or treating. They are so full of excitement and wonder, it’s so fun to not only watch but walk with them!

I love the fall colors and watching the kids play dress-up – even the older ones get excited.
