Bunny Bait Funfetti Popcorn is a fun and festive recipe that comes together in 15 minutes. It is perfect for Easter and the kids are going to love it! And the adults too.
prep time: 15 MINScook time: total time: 15 mins
Ingredients
- 2 cups vanilla candy melts (Wilton, Almond Bark or CandiQuik are great)
- 8 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup unpopped)
- 12 ounces pastel M&M's
- 1 1/2 cups pretzels, each piece broken in half
- 1/2 cup sprinkles, any festive style
- 1 cup colorful candy melts, optional
Instructions
- Line a large baking sheet (18 x 13 or similar) with parchment paper, then set nearby.
- Place popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl, then add M&M’s and pretzels on top.
- In a medium bowl, heat vanilla candy melts per package instructions until smooth.
- Pour melted vanilla candy over the popcorn mixture, then use a spatula to quickly (but gently!) toss and stir until the candy melts have coated all of the ingredients. Be careful not to stir too long; you don’t want the candy to harden yet.
- Transfer coated popcorn mixture to the prepared baking sheet and spread out into an even layer.
- While candy melts are still wet, sprinkle with festive sprinkles as desired.
- If you’d like to add more color, heat some colorful candy melts and drizzle them on top of the bunny bait.
- Let bunny bait dry completely (about 1 hour), then use your hands to gently break it apart into snack-sized pieces.
- Bunny bait can be stored at room temperature in sealed bags or a container for up to 5 days.
