Cookies & Cream Popcorn!

Tis the Season!
I don't know about everyone, but this time of year I just want to give a little something special to EVERYONE I know.
Unfortunately, our budget is not as giving!
What's a girl to do?
I found a solution!
A sweet treat for all the neighbors on your street!
(Like the rhyme?  You can use that!)

Here is What You'll Need:
- Popcorn
- Vanilla Almond Bark
- Oreos or similar type cookie

Yup that's it.
3 ingredients and you are well on your way to being loved by everyone!
Follow the directions on the container of popcorn.
I popped mine on the stove top with a little bit of oil.
I popped 1/3 cup of kernels to get approximately 9 cups give or take.
Now follow the directions on the package of Almond bark.
You'll use the entire contents of the package.
While this is slowly melting take your cookies (about 1/2 the package) and smash them up in whatever manner you find fitting.
I put mine in a ziplock bag and roll over them with a rolling pin about 1000 times.

Once you have all your ingredients you'll want a BIG bowl.
Pour EVERYTHING in the bowl.
Cover it and SHAKE SHAKE SHAKE!
When you are done shaking I highly advise that you cover a counter with parchment or wax paper and pour your popcorn out evenly on top of it.
Allow it to cool entirely.
Once cool you can package it up in little baggies and disperse it amongst all the special people in your life!
Make sure you sneak a little for yourself.
You're pretty special too!
And there you have it folks, a sweet treat for all the neighbors on your street.

What other sweets do you gift during the holidays?
Puppy Chow?
Cookies?

I hope you all have a blessed Tuesday!

P.S. the giveaway for the Woolzies Dryer Balls has ended and I'll be announcing the winner tomorrow!
