Easter Bunny Bait

Bunny Bait

1 bag popcorn, popped (I used Tender White)
6 oz. white chocolate candy coating
1 bag Easter M&Ms
pretzel sticks, broken into small pieces
colorful sprinkles, if desired

Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl with the broken up pretzels and M&Ms. Heat the candy coating in the microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring after each time, until melted and smooth.

Drizzle the candy coating over the popcorn mixture and stir to coat. The pretzels and M&Ms will sink to the bottom, so make sure to get those stirred in and coated with the rest of the popcorn.

Spread out on a large piece of wax paper, top with a few sprinkles (if desired) and let cool. Break into pieces and serve in a large bowl.

I substituted White Frosting (the squeezable kind) for the White chocolate candy coating (because I couldn't find the darn stuff - ANYWHERE) and it came out PERFECTLY!

My kids (8 and almost 4) were VERY helpful in making this.  They broke off the pretzels, my son loved throwing those in as I mixed the goopy mixture (warning: MESSY) and the kids absolutely LOVED IT!

This recipe - I RECOMMEND.  This will be one we make every Easter from now on...our new family tradition!

TIP: Make sure ALL Kernels are gone ... It makes for a painful for surprise - - for your TEETH!
