Ingredients
8cupspopped popcorn1/2 cup unpopped kernels (OR you could do what I did and pop two standard-size bags of popcorn in the microwave.)
3cupsred velvet cake crumbsabout 1/3 of a 9 x 13 cake
22oz.white chocolate chips
1tablespoonvegetable shorting(Crisco)
Instructions
First pop your popcorn using an air popper or the stove. Again, you can cheat like I did and just use the microwave variety. (I used plain fat-free popcorn.)
Next, melt your white chocolate chips along with the Crisco in a double broiler on the stove.
Transfer your popcorn to a large bowl, making sure to remove any unpopped kernels. Pour the melted chocolate over the popcorn and stir to coat completely.
Pour the popcorn onto a waxed paper lined service and sprinkle with your red velvet crumbs. To get a heavy crumb coating turn the popcorn over with a spoon and sprinkle again with the red velvet crumbs. Repeat this step until you're happy with the coverage.
