Preparation
  1. Preheat your oven to 200°F (93°C) and line three large baking sheets with parchment paper.
  2. In a large pot, heat 2 tablespoons of coconut oil over medium heat. Add ½ cup of popcorn kernels and cover with a lid. Shake gently, allowing 3-5 seconds between pops before removing from heat.
  3. In three microwave-safe bowls, place 2 cups of white chocolate chips in each. Add a teaspoon of coconut oil and microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring until melted.
  4. Once melted, add food coloring to each bowl of white chocolate and stir until colors are vibrant.
  5. Drizzle the colored chocolate over the popcorn and fold gently with a spatula to coat evenly. Spread onto baking sheets.
  6. While still melty, sprinkle desired mix-ins over each colored batch of popcorn.
  7. Let the popcorn rest at room temperature for about 5 minutes to allow chocolate to set.
  8. Serve in a large bowl, mini cauldrons, or treat bags.
