Thanksgiving Greetings and Plymouth Popcorn

Plymouth Popcorn-002

Plymouth Popcorn is a sweet and salty treat, great for snacking and sure to satisfy hungry pilgrims, football fans, or tree-trimmers over Thanksgiving weekend!

Quick and easy to throw together with almond bark, popcorn, and your favorite combination of candy, pretzels, and/or nuts.

Plymouth Pantry Almond Bark came from Walmart rather than over on the Mayflower :) but you can use any vanilla flavored almond bark found in the baking section of the grocery store, white chocolate chips or candy melts. I like the convenience of the blocks of bark.

No recipe required for this sweet and salty treat~ as a guideline, for 10 cups of popcorn I use a 24 oz. package of almond bark, less 2 blocks. You can adjust your candy coating-to-popcorn ratio to your taste buds.

Melt candy coating according to package directions (I use the microwave) and toss in a large bowl with your popcorn. Mix until coated and spread popcorn on wax paper or parchment lined baking sheet(s) to cool and set.

Once your popcorn is set (about 15- 20 minutes), break into pieces and stir in your candy of choice, nuts and/or pretzels.

I mixed in some Pumpkin Spice M&Ms and Brach’s Caramel Candy Corn, pretzels, mixed nuts, and dried cranberries, since it’s Thanksgiving : ) for a sweet and salty blend.

    I am in my danger phase, where I am so confident that everything is under control that I’m tempted to add things to the menu, and this is at the top of the list! I would love to have some bowls of this Plymouth Popcorn munch around the house! I’m glad it didn’t arrive by Mayflower, much fresher from Walmart! I might just even have most of the ingredients…thank you for a wonderful treat that everyone will enjoy~I wish I had a beautiful silver turkey ladle to serve it with! Happy Thanksgiving Mary~

    so adorable, its the details that delight! i am not a snack person, well unless its 100% sugar, throw in popcorn and snacky stuff and i am just not enthralled, BUT my husband is ;-) i buy him the most expensive popcorns like cinnabon, zebra, pumpkin spice, it looks like they have nothing on you, i should try and be a good wife and make him this stuff, besides being darling it would surely put a huge smile on his face, it even looks healthy!

    happy thanksgiving and thanks for all the nonstop fun your blog has been since day one~

    Mary, where did you get that fabulous turkey ladle? Is this a family heirloom ? Nancy

    • November 27, 2013 at 6:45 pm

      Hi Nancy, It’s part of a Wallace 6 piece Turkey Hostess Set. You can find it here. Happy Thanksgiving!

  17. November 27, 2013 at 10:02 pm

    Everything you do just looks so delicious, Mary! I’ll have to make some of this when the grandgirls are here! Wishing you and yours a very happy Thanksgiving!

    What a darling display…LOVE the plaid napkins & the popcorn looks WONDERFUL!!!
    I just don’t understand how God could give ONE PERSON so much creativity & the rest of us, hardly any. I’m so envious of your talents, Mary!
    Every single post is like a page from a beautiful high-style magazine.

    Have a warm & wonderfully Happy Thanksgiving!

    I am such a popcorn fan, I had to come over and take a look at this one. Found it on today’s linky party. Pinning this one to my “Pop That Corn” board on pinterest. Love the sweet/salty thing going on here.

    Looks wonderful but doesn’t the popcorn get soft with all the additions, especially the dried cranberries?

    • November 1, 2014 at 9:57 am

      No, The popcorn has a hard shell candy coating on it :)
