Servings: 4 people
Ingredients
- 1 bag microwave popcorn or roughly 10 cups popped popcorn
- 1 (12 oz) bag white chocolate chips roughly 2 cups
- 2 tbsp vegetable oil
- 1/2 tsp almond extract
- 1/2 cup rainbow sprinkles
- 1 cup funfetti cake mix heat-treated
- 1/4 cup powdered sugar
Instructions
- Heat-treat your funfetti cake mix by adding it into a microwave safe bowl and microwaving for 60-90 seconds, stirring halfway through, then set aside to cool completely.
- Pour your popped popcorn into a large mixing bowl, making sure to remove any unpopped kernels, and set aside for later.
- In a microwave safe bowl, combine white chocolate chips and vegetable oil. Microwave in 30 second intervals, stirring in-between, until melted and smooth. Then stir in the almond extract.
- Pour the melted white chocolate into your bowl of popcorn, then mix to coat the popcorn evenly. Sprinkle in the rainbow sprinkles and mix again to coat.
- In a small mixing bowl, combine the heat-treated cake mix and powdered sugar, then add it to the chocolate covered popcorn and mix (or shake if you have a lid) to coat the popcorn evenly.
- Transfer the funfetti popcorn onto a baking sheet, spread it into an even layer and let cool completely before storing or enjoying.
