Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Popcorn Mix: Easy Versatile Fall Snack
Finding fall snack recipes that are kid friendly, easy, and nut & gluten-free that are exciting and festive can be a tricky feat to accomplish, but this Pumpkin Spice White Chocolate Popcorn Mix meets all those requirements. All the cooking for this Pumpkin Spice Popcorn recipe is done in the microwave, which comprises of popping the corn and melting chocolate candy melts. Like my other holiday popcorn recipes, this one is also made on a big platter.
I just love the presentation it makes to place a big colorful platter in front of your friends and family and let them dig in. It is far easier than making and decorating a cake, but has that same effect.... just without all the fuss. If you really want to serve cake too though make my easy Pumpkin Dump Cake or Caramel Apple Dump Cake. Both are super easy.
Pumpkin Spice Popcorn Recipe: Fall Party Food
This Pumpkin Spice Popcorn Recipe features microwave popcorn, orange and white chocolate candy melts, lots of autumn sprinkles, candy creme pumpkins and Pumpkin Pie M & Ms. Despite being so easy to prepare the platter of popcorn mix is very festive in appearance. It can easily be made while guests are already present. Children would enjoy helping with adding the candy and sprinkles. The platter of White Chocolate Pumpkin Spice Popcorn would also travel well to bring along to a party. Once fully cool the top drizzle of chocolate holds the popcorn together somewhat. As long as you aren't rough with it, it should arrive intact.

Note: The particular M&Ms used here are currently discontinued. I recommend the Toasty Vanilla M&Ms from this year's holiday flavors as the best swap. If you can find any leftover Creepy Cocoa Crisp variety from Halloween, those would also work, taste and color-wise.
