Let’s get into the movie spirit with Chocolate Mint Popcorn Mix!
Is your family a movie night family? Mine is! We have movie nights almost every single week or at least when we aren’t crazy busy during the evenings. It’s basically a great way to press pause and slow down a bit, just relax. I always look forward to our family movie nights and so do my kids. Even more than that though, I also look forward to our weekly movie date nights with just my husband and myself. It’s such a nice, inexpensive way to enjoy time together without having to get a babysitter or even leave the house.
Now, although we do love a good at-home movie night, we also love to go out. As luck would have it, the latest movie Assassin’s Creed is heading to theaters on December 21st. Guess what? That’s my birthday!
Now, when we have a family movie night Pop Secret is the key to our success because my kids always expect popcorn. I like to add to it though and this time we added chocolate covered raisins, Chocolate Mint candies, and Honey Roasted Peanuts. Then, we had our family bowl of popcorn ready to serve! I just love a good bite of popcorn mixed with chocolate, it’s the perfect treat for a family movie night. Of course, when we go to the movies, I have to buy both the popcorn and the candy too because I just can’t have it any other way.
How do you like to serve popcorn? I love adding candy to mine, it’s just a must!
Do you like extra butter? I’m not an extra butter person either especially at the theater, but my friends are. I think I’m more opposed to it being all over my hands than I am the taste.
Enjoy!

Yes! So much yes! I love popcorn on its own, but what I really love is using it as a base for a delicious popcorn extravaganza. I must try this mix. It looks so delicious!
Family movie time is a big deal in our house. We love spending time together watching movies and eating popcorn. Although my favorite topping for the past few months has been truffle oil, I’m kind of getting tired of it and looking to switch it up. I’m definitely rocking a bowl of this next movie night. I’m also right with you on Assassins Creed too! Can’t wait to see it!
The mix of salty and sweet is my favorite snack! When I was in high school, people thought I was crazy for tossing M&Ms in my popcorn, but now it is all the rage! So good!
I love this chocolate mint popcorn. It looks and sounds so delicious. My family loves family movie night and popcorn is definitely a part of that equation. I would love to try this recipe for our weekly movie night! Love chocolate and mint together.
Popcorn is a huge favorite in our house. And it’s one of the “staples” of my oldest son’s diet now that he’s in college. I’ll have to pick up a few bags of candy so he can try your recipe to share with his dorm.
This looks like a pretty decadent combination. I love the idea of putting savoury ingredient with sweet ones…and you can’t go wrong with popcorn!
What a super fun flavor combination! Chocolate and mint are so yummy together, but I’m betting that bit of saltiness from the popcorn just takes this completely over the top! This would be so fun at a kids’ classroom party…deliciousness all around!
You know every time I come to your blog I gain weight. I am starving now and we are in the middle of a storm and have no water. Grr. This would be in my kitchen if it were possible.
This sounds so good!!! I love popcorn and trail mix, so I know I’d love this! I make a ton of different popcorn mixes for holiday parties too because it’s such a fun snack. I’ll definitely have to try making this!
