How to Make a Valentine’s Day Popcorn Mix
Here’s our favorite Valentine’s Day treat to make for gifts to give away…cupids crunch valentine popcorn!
You have all the chococolate goodness which makes it a salty and sweet combo.
After we make a few batches of this valentine popcorn, we put a scoop into clear bags and use cute pink ribbon to tie a bow. Add a clever quote to finish it off like “You make my heart pop” or something cheesy 😉
You could also just make this valentine’s day dessert for the family to enjoy on that day too!
