Description
Easy no-bake sweet and salty snack perfect for Easter.
Ingredients
Scale
- 8 cups popped popcorn (plain or lightly salted)
- 2 cups mini pretzels
- 2 cups rice or corn square cereal
- 1½ cups pastel chocolate candies
- 1 cup mini marshmallows
- ¼–½ cup pastel sprinkles
- 16 oz white chocolate chips or candy melts
- 1–2 tsp neutral oil (optional, for smoother melting)
- Crushed vanilla cookies
- Shredded coconut
- Sunflower seeds (if nut-free is required, avoid mixed seed packs)
Instructions
- Line two large baking sheets with parchment paper. Spread popcorn out and remove any hard kernels.
- Scatter pretzels and cereal over the popcorn. Gently toss to combine.
- Place chocolate in a microwave-safe bowl. Heat at 50% power in 30-second bursts, stirring each time, until smooth. Stir in oil if needed for a thinner drizzle.
- Drizzle half the melted chocolate over the mixture and gently toss. Drizzle the rest and toss again lightly — don’t overmix.
- Immediately sprinkle candies, marshmallows, and sprinkles over the top. Press lightly so they stick.
- Let sit at room temperature 20–30 minutes (or chill 10–15 minutes) until firm.
- Break into clusters and transfer to a bowl or treat bags.
Notes
- Make sure to use plain or lightly salted popcorn for best results.
- Kids can help with mixing and adding toppings.
- Store in an airtight container for freshness.
