GG’s Holiday Funfetti

Yield: 12 cups

Prep Time: 10 minutes

Total Time: 40 minutes

Ingredients

1 (3oz) bag of plain or lightly buttered microwave popcorn
12 oz white chocolate
1 1/2 cups (2.6oz) mini pretzels
1 (10 oz) bag of candy-coated chocolates, such as M&Ms
Colorful sprinkles

Equipment

Microwave
Cookie sheet
Wax paper

Directions

Pop the popcorn in the microwave, following the popcorn’s packaging instructions. Remove from the microwave immediately, open the bag, and pour the popcorn into a large bowl. Remove any un-popped kernels you find.
Cover a cookie sheet with a sheet of wax paper and set aside. Allow the popcorn to cool for a minute or two, then add the mini pretzels and candy-coated chocolates. Mix gently.
Break the white chocolate into pieces and place in a microwave-safe bowl. Microwave on high, in 30-second increments, stirring between each increment to ensure that the chocolate is smooth.
Once melted, drizzle half the chocolate into the bowl of popcorn and mix gently with a rubber spatula. Drizzle the other half and mix again until the popcorn mixture is evenly coated.
Pour the chocolate-coated popcorn onto the prepared cookie sheet and add sprinkles. Allow the mixture to cool and harden for about 30 minutes before serving in a bowl. Ta-da! Enjoy.
