How to Make White Chocolate Cashew Popcorn

  1. Preheat your oven to 250°F (120°C). Pop 1/2 cup of popcorn kernels according to package directions. Let cool completely.
  2. In a large bowl, combine the popped popcorn, 1 cup of roasted and salted cashews, and 1/2 cup of mini marshmallows (optional, for extra gooey goodness).
  3. In a microwave-safe bowl, melt 12 ounces of white chocolate almond bark in 30-second intervals, stirring until completely smooth. (Alternatively, melt in a double boiler over low heat.)
  4. Gently pour the melted white chocolate over the popcorn and cashew mixture. Using a large spoon or spatula, toss until the popcorn is evenly coated.
  5. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper. Spread the popcorn mixture in a single layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Bake for 5-7 minutes, or until the chocolate is set. Watch carefully to prevent burning.
  7. Let the popcorn cool completely before breaking it into smaller clusters. Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to a week.
