Description

Funfetti popcorn is a sweet, colorful treat that’s perfect for parties or any occasion that calls for a little extra fun! Popcorn is coated in a sweet vanilla glaze and sprinkled with colorful rainbow sprinkles, making it an irresistible snack.


Ingredients

Units Scale
  • :
  • 10 cups popped popcorn (about 1/2 cup unpopped kernels)
  • 1/2 cup unsalted butter
  • 1 cup white chocolate chips or vanilla candy melts
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 cup rainbow sprinkles (plus extra for garnish)
  • 1/4 tsp salt

Instructions

  • :
  • Pop the Popcorn: Pop the popcorn using your preferred method (air-popped, stovetop, or microwave). Make sure to remove any unpopped kernels. Place the popcorn in a large mixing bowl.
  • Melt the Chocolate: In a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate chips or vanilla candy melts. Heat in 30-second intervals, stirring in between until completely smooth.
  • Make the Glaze: In a small saucepan, melt the butter over medium heat. Stir in the vanilla extract and salt. Pour the melted butter mixture into the melted white chocolate and stir to combine.
  • Coat the Popcorn: Drizzle the white chocolate glaze over the popped popcorn and toss gently to coat the popcorn evenly.
  • Add Sprinkles: Immediately sprinkle the rainbow sprinkles over the popcorn while the glaze is still wet. Toss to distribute the sprinkles evenly.
  • Cool and Serve: Spread the coated popcorn out on a parchment-lined baking sheet to cool and harden. Once set, break into pieces and enjoy!

Notes

  • :
  • You can store the Funfetti popcorn in an airtight container for up to a week.
  • For added flavor, try mixing in small candies like M&Ms or mini chocolate chips.
