The Trolls movie is now available on DVD & Blu-ray, which means lots Trolls movie nights are going to be happening! If you brought home Trolls and are planning your own neon-filled movie night, we have the perfect movie night treat for you: a bright and colorful Trolls Movie Popcorn recipe!
This fun recipe is easy to make and the kids can help to make it too (with adult supervision, of course). While we think it’s excellent for family movie nights, it’s also a fun treat for a Trolls birthday party.
To make this Trolls Movie Popcorn recipe, you’ll need a few ingredients:
- Popcorn (no butter – we recommend popping it yourself)
- 3 Colors of Candy Melts: Bright White, Bright Pink, and Light Blue
- Candy Decorations: Pink Sugar Crystals, Blue Sugar Crystals, and Pastel Confetti Sprinkles
You’ll start off by popping your popcorn kernels and placing your popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl. Melt the white chocolate melts in a microwave-safe bowl and once they are fully melted and smooth, pour it over the popcorn.
With a rubber spatula, carefully turn and coat the popcorn with the melted white chocolate until nearly all the popcorn is coated. Be sure to do this carefully — not only is the melted white chocolate hot, but you also want to avoid breaking up popcorn.
Pour the white chocolate coated popcorn onto a parchment or wax paper-lined baking sheet. Spread out the popcorn evenly with the rubber spatula. Working quickly, generously sprinkle the top of the popcorn with 3 different kinds of sprinkles before the white chocolate cools and sets. There is no right or wrong types of sprinkles to use, but we recommend using a pink sugar, a blue sugar, and pastel sprinkles.
In another microwave-safe bowl, microwave your blue chocolate melts until fully melted and smooth. With a spoon, drizzle the blue melted chocolate all over the popcorn.
Repeat the same steps with pink chocolate melts.
Once you are done drizzling with both colors, you can add additional sprinkles, if you wish, and if the candy melts haven’t fully set. Once everything has fully set, you can separate the popcorn into pieces and place in a bowl for serving.
Of course, you can use any bowls you have on hand, but if this is for a movie night or birthday party, large neon colored snack bowls would be fun or you could even use small party cups in neon colors if you are serving a large group of kids.
