Ingredients

  • 10 cups popped popcorn
  • 2 teaspoons coconut oil
  • 8 ounces white chocolate candy coating or white chocolate chips
  • 1 tablespoon lime zest finely chopped
  • 5 graham crackers crushed
  • 1 drop green food coloring optional

Instructions

  • Prepare a large rimmed baking sheet or other large pan by lining with parchment paper. Set aside.
  • Spread popcorn out on lined baking sheet.
  • In a heat-proof measuring cup, place about 6 oz. of white chocolate candy coating pieces. Microwave for 30 seconds at a time, stopping and stirring occasionally until completely melted and smooth.
  • Stir in lime zest and incorporate completely. If your coating is too thick, add ½ to 1 teaspoon of coconut oil and stir until a smooth consistency is reached.
  • Pour melted coating onto popcorn. With a silicone spatula, carefully toss popcorn with candy coating, making sure to coat as much as possible.
  • Sprinkle crushed graham cracker crumbs over popcorn and gently toss to adhere crumbs to wet coating. Set aside to cool.
  • Melt the remaining 2 ounces of white chocolate candy coating until smooth, and add 1 drop of green food coloring. Mix to incorporate.
  • Drizzle onto popcorn and allow to set until hardened and no longer sticky. (To speed up the process, refrigerate for 30 minutes.)
  • Break up any large pieces before serving or packaging.
