Ingredients
1bag of microwave popcornfull sized, not snack
15purple candy melts*
15pink candy melts*
15white candy melts*
sprinkles in spring colors
Peanut M&Ms in pastel colorsor M&Ms of choice
Instructions
Pop the popcorn, then separate into two large bowls. Try and remove the unpopped kernels.
Place the candy melts in small bowls, one for each color.
Microwave the purple candy for 40 seconds then stir, repeat in 20 second intervals until melted and smooth. (takes 1-1 ½ minutes dependent on melt brand and your microwave).
Drizzle over one of the bowls of popcorn, use a silicone spatula to ensure you get all the chocolate candy melt out. Toss the popcorn with your hands until well coated. Leave to cool.
Repeat above process with pink candy melts.
Once the pastel chocolate has set on the popcorn, mix the two colors together, then spread out on large platter.
Melt the white candy melts and drizzle over the platter of popcorn, immediately top generously with candy sprinkles. They will adhere to the melted white chocolate candy.
Add the M&Ms and serve.
Notes
*feel free to mix up the colors a bit. I coated ½ with pink & half with purple, but you could do 1 color or more colors
