GRINCH NIGHT
One of our favorite nights in December is Grinch Night. The Grinch snacks are so yummy and we now have three Grinch movies to choose from!
Grinch Popcorn
- 1/2 cup popcorn kernels
- 2 TBS canola oil
- salt
- 1/4 cup salted butter
- 1/2 tsp vanilla extract
- 5 cups mini marshmallows
- green food coloring
- red M&Ms
Instructions:
Add canola oil, salt and kernels in a stew pot and set on high with the lid on. No need to mess with it, add the ingredients, set on high with the lid on and leave it. Once the pops start to stop turn the heat off. Have a large bowl ready to dump the popcorn in. Take the lid off away from your face and pour popcorn into large bowl. Set aside
In a new saucepan, start to melt butter. When the butter begins to melt add the marshmallows. Stir constantly on medium-heat. When the marshmallows and butter have completely combined and melted, take off of burner and add vanilla extract and stir to blend. Add about 5 drops of green food coloring.
Once combined, pour over popcorn and stir to combine. Pour onto a cookie sheet somewhat even and flat. Sprinkle red M&Ms. Enjoy!
Our family LOVES this popcorn so much! The recipe is super easy to use in all holidays. For Halloween we will use orange food coloring and Halloween M&Ms. For Valentines Day you can use pink food coloring and any red candies you choose. Get creative! I love to master a recipe and then find a way to use it for all holidays.
We love to pair Grinch Popcorn with our version of Grinch Punch!
This recipe is super hard. Green sherbert and 7-Up.
Our family has always watched the Grinch movie with Jim Carey but we fell in love hard with the new Grinch released November 2018. This for sure is our new favorite! Let’s not forget the timeless classic released in 1966.
Which Grinch movie is your family favorite? I think everyone’s family’s will have a mix of which theirs is! xoxo
