Ingredients

• 6.5 ounces (2 bags) butter-flavored puff corn (Chester’s brand recommended)

• 8 ounces almond bark

• 10 ounces white chocolate (melting wafers or bars preferred)

• Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)

Step-by-Step: How to Make White Chocolate Puff Corn

1. Start by prepping your work surface with two large sheets of waxed paper to catch the coated puff corn.

2. Pour the puff corn into a very large mixing bowl to allow for even mixing.

3. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the almond bark and white chocolate. Microwave in 30-second bursts, stirring well after each interval until completely melted and smooth.

4. Pour half of the melted chocolate over the puff corn. Stir gently but thoroughly to coat.

5. Add the remaining melted chocolate and stir again, ensuring all puff corn pieces are fully coated.

6. Spread the coated puff corn mixture evenly onto the wax paper.

7. While the chocolate is still wet, scatter sprinkles over the top if desired.

8. Let the mixture cool and set completely, about 30 minutes.

9. After the mixture has fully set, break it into bite-sized clusters and transfer them to an airtight container for storage.

Helpful Tips

• Stir gently to avoid crushing the puff corn.

• Use a large enough bowl to comfortably stir the mixture.

• If your chocolate mixture starts to harden while mixing, microwave it for 10 more seconds.

• For a festive look, use colored sprinkles matching the holiday or occasion.

• Let the chocolate fully set before storing to avoid sticking.

Substitutions And Variations

• Almond Bark: If unavailable, just use extra white chocolate.

• White Chocolate: Use melting wafers or bars for the best texture. Avoid chips as they may seize.

• Flavor Boosts: Add a pinch of sea salt, cinnamon, or crushed peppermint.

• Add-ins: Try mixing in mini marshmallows, M&M’s, or pretzel bits before the chocolate sets.

• Dairy-Free Option: Use dairy-free white chocolate alternatives.

Storage Instructions

Store white chocolate puff corn in an airtight container at room temperature for up to one week. Avoid humid environments, which can make the puff corn soggy. For longer storage, keep in the refrigerator, but allow it to come to room temperature before serving to preserve the best texture.

Frequently Asked Questions About White Chocolate Puff Corn

Can I use other brands of puff corn? Yes, any butter-flavored puff corn works well, though Chester’s is a popular favorite for its texture.

Is it okay to skip the almond bark? Absolutely. Just use more white chocolate, but ensure it’s a good melting kind.

How do I melt the chocolate if I don’t have a microwave? You can use a double boiler on the stovetop. Heat the chocolate slowly, stirring constantly.

Can I freeze this treat? While you can technically freeze white chocolate puff corn, it may affect the texture. It’s best enjoyed fresh or stored at room temperature.
