Kettle corn is the very best kind of popcorn to use in a mixed recipe like this. It won’t deflate or absorb any of the moisture from the chocolate, because the crispy sugar shell around each kernel acts as a barrier between the popcorn and the white chocolate. For any kind of a popcorn mix, I will typically use a bag of store-bought kettle corn to keep things quick and easy. But you can absolutely make your own, homemade kettle corn if you want to go the extra mile! Here’s what you’ll need to make homemade kettle corn: 1/4 cup vegetable, canola, or coconut oil or coconut oil substitute1/2 cup sugar1/2 cup popcorn kernels3 Tbsp. butter, meltedsalt for sprinkling You can find the full recipe with all of the instructions over here in this post.
