How to Make Bloody Red Velvet Popcorn – Spooky in Minutes

Step 1: Prepare the Popcorn

Spread popped popcorn out on a parchment-lined baking sheet. Make sure it’s cooled and free of unpopped kernels.

Step 2: Melt the Coating

In a microwave-safe bowl, melt white chocolate chips in 20-second intervals, stirring until smooth. Stir in cocoa powder, powdered sugar, and red velvet cake mix (if using). Tint with red food coloring until deep red.

Step 3: Coat the Popcorn

Pour the red chocolate mixture over the popcorn. Toss gently with a spatula to coat evenly. Spread back onto the baking sheet.

Step 4: Add the “Blood”

Melt red candy melts (or tint more white chocolate with deep red coloring) and drizzle across the coated popcorn for a bloody finish. For extra creep factor, drizzle a little dark chocolate as “dried blood.”

Step 5: Let It Set & Serve

Allow popcorn to set at room temperature or pop it into the fridge for 10 minutes to harden. Break into clusters and serve in Halloween bowls or popcorn bags.
