Pop approximately 10 cups of popcorn and place it on baking sheets lined with parchment paper. You will likely need 2 baking sheets.
Place the white chocolate chips in a microwave safe bowl. Heat in 20 second intervals in the microwave, stirring after heat interval until melted and combined. Stir in approximately 1/2 of the crushed candy canes and save the rest for the top.
Pour the white chocolate mixture over the popcorn and gently toss with a spatula until the popcorn is evenly coated. Work quickly. The chocolate starts to set as it cools.
Sprinkle the remaining crushed candy canes on top of the popcorn.
Let the popcorn sit at room temperature until the white chocolate is firm and no longer shiny, 30 minutes (or 10–15 minutes in the fridge if you're in a hurry). Break it into pieces and serve.
