Ingredients
1 cup pretzel sticks
1 cup popcorn (popped)
1 cup mini marshmallows
1/2 cup pastel-colored candies (such as M&M’s or chocolate eggs)
1/2 cup white chocolate chips or candy melts
Sprinkles (optional, for decoration)
Pastel-colored edible glitter (optional)
Instructions
-
In a large mixing bowl, combine the pretzel sticks, popcorn, mini marshmallows, and pastel-colored candies. Mix gently to avoid breaking the ingredients.
-
Melt the white chocolate chips or candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl in 20-second intervals, stirring well after each interval until smooth.
-
Drizzle the melted chocolate over the snack mix, stirring gently to ensure an even coating.
-
Spread the mixture onto a parchment-lined baking sheet in a single, even layer.
-
Immediately sprinkle with sprinkles and edible glitter (if using) while the chocolate is still wet.
-
Let the mixture cool completely at room temperature until the chocolate is set.
-
Once the chocolate has hardened, break the mixture into bite-sized clusters.
-
Store in an airtight container or package it in treat bags for gifting.
Notes
Add more mix-ins like mini chocolate chips, dried fruit, or coconut flakes for extra texture and flavor.
Use milk or dark chocolate instead of white chocolate for a different taste.
Store the Bunny Bait in an airtight container for up to a week at room temperature or in the fridge for longer shelf life.
