- Drizzle melted chocolate over popcorn. Close bag and shake until thoroughly coated, 3 to 4 minutes. Place in the refrigerator to cool, about 1 hour.

SALTY AND SWEET POPCORN BALLS
Steps:
- Light coat a 12-cup muffin tin with cooking spray.
- Combine the popcorn, pretzel pieces, 1 cup of the peanut butter chips and 1 cup of the milk chocolate chips in a large bowl. Toss to distribute evenly.
- Melt the butter, confectioners' sugar, corn syrup and marshmallows in a large microwave-safe bowl in 15 second intervals, stirring between each interval, until completely melted.
- Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the popcorn mixture and stir until evenly coated. Quickly, but gently form twelve 2 1/2-to-3-inch-diameter balls with either your hands or a large cookie scoop lightly coated with cooking spray. Pretend you're making snowballs, but don't pack them too hard. Place each of them in a well of the prepared muffin tin so they hold their shape as they cool.
- When the popcorns balls are cool, melt the remaining 1/2 cup peanut butter chips, the remaining 1/2 cup milk chocolate chips and the white chocolate chips in each of 3 small microwave-safe bowls in 15 second intervals, stirring occasionally. Transfer the melted chips to each of 3 small piping bags or resealable bags. Snip the tips and drizzle over the popcorn balls. Top evenly with the crushed potato chips and let set, about 30 minutes, before serving.

Steps:
- Pour popcorn into a large bowl.
- Mix in the M & M's, pretzels, and peanuts. Spread out on a large jelly roll pan (or cookie sheet).
- Place white chocolate chips and shortening into a microwave-safe bowl.
- Cook for 45 seconds, remove from microwave, and stir. Continue cooking at 25 second intervals, stirring each time, until chocolate is completely melted and smooth.
- Drizzle chocolate over popcorn mixture and gently mix until most pieces are covered with chocolate.
Tips:
- Use a large pot or Dutch oven to pop the popcorn. This will help to ensure that all of the kernels pop evenly.
- Do not overcrowd the pot with popcorn kernels. This will also prevent the kernels from popping evenly.
- Use a candy thermometer to measure the temperature of the melted white chocolate. This will help to ensure that the chocolate does not get too hot and burn.
- Stir the melted white chocolate and popcorn mixture constantly. This will help to prevent the chocolate from setting before it is evenly distributed over the popcorn.
- Sprinkle the popcorn with sea salt immediately after coating it with the melted white chocolate. This will help the salt to adhere to the popcorn.
- Let the popcorn cool completely before storing it in an airtight container. This will help to keep the popcorn fresh and crispy.
Conclusion
Sweet and salty white chocolate popcorn is a delicious and easy-to-make snack. It is perfect for parties, movie nights, or as a gift. With a few simple ingredients and a little bit of time, you can create a tasty treat that everyone will enjoy.
