I’m slowly chipping away at my holiday bucket list. I spent a day this past week baking cookies and other yummy treats with my Mom, I’ve been drinking eggnog every chance I get (which, sadly, isn’t enough for my liking… but probably also a good thing for my waistline) and I’ve managed to fit in a few sessions at the gym too. All in all I’m feeling pretty good! Today I’ve been looking for popcorn recipes to whip up when I’m craving something sweet that’s not candy canes or um, more eggnog.
I actually started out trying to concoct my own recipe but I learned too late that the lid was loose on my jar of nutmeg aaaand… that batch had to go in the garbage. I also need to buy more nutmeg. Instead of trying again I decided my time would be better spent looking for recipes online. I dunno if you’ve ever Googled “festive popcorn recipes” but there are a TON. Lucky for you though I managed to whittle the list down to just a few. Here are some of my favourites (pictured top to bottom/left to right):
- Red velvet popcorn cake
- Gingerbread popcorn
- Hot chocolate popcorn
- Rudolph popcorn
- Candy cane snack mix
- Funfetti xmas popcorn
I think I’m going to start with the hot chocolate one, because yum. That, and I have all the ingredients already. 🙂 Up next is wrapping gifts, more trip planning, and a date at the ice rink. Here’s hoping your holiday kitchen adventures have been less messy than mine were today!
