Step‑by‑Step Instructions for Easy Halloween Popcorn
  1. Prepare a large baking pan with parchment paper or a silicone mat. Preheat oven to 200°F (93°C) for a brief warm-up.
  2. Spread 8-10 cups of backed popcorn evenly in a single layer across the pan.
  3. Melt 10-12 ounces of black and orange candy melts until silky smooth.
  4. Drizzle half of the melted chocolate over the popcorn evenly.
  5. While the drizzle is still wet, sprinkle half of the crushed Oreo cookies, sprinkles, and M&Ms evenly over the popcorn.
  6. Allow popcorn to sit at room temperature for 30-60 minutes to let the chocolate firm up.
  7. Once the chocolate has set, gently mix the popcorn and reapply the remaining toppings.
  8. Allow popcorn to dry completely, which may take an additional 30-60 minutes.
