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:
- To make the perfect popcorn, use a heavy-bottomed pot with a tight-fitting lid. This will help to evenly distribute the heat and prevent the popcorn from burning.
- Use fresh popcorn kernels. Old kernels are less likely to pop and will result in more unpopped kernels.
- Don't overcrowd the pot. If you add too many kernels, they won't have enough room to pop properly.
- Heat the oil over medium heat. If the oil is too hot, the popcorn will burn. If the oil is too cold, the popcorn will not pop.
- Once the oil is hot, add the popcorn kernels. Cover the pot and shake it vigorously for a few seconds. This will help to distribute the kernels evenly and prevent them from burning.
- Remove the pot from the heat and listen for the popping to slow down. Once the popping has slowed to a few seconds between pops, remove the pot from the heat.
- Pour the popcorn into a large bowl and let it cool slightly before adding any toppings.
