What is unicorn munch?
Unicorn munch popcorn mix is a colorful snack mix.
The base of it is white popcorn.
Melted white candy melts coat the popcorn and then the popcorn gets tossed with rainbow candy corn, unicorn sprinkles, and a purple drizzle.
The result is a magical mix!
Ingredients
To make this you’ll need:
- Popcorn– White popcorn cooked according to the package instructions
- Candy melts– Both white chocolate and purple
- Candy corn– The funfetti kind
- Sprinkles– Can you even make a unicorn themed snack without sprinkles? Go for unicorn sprinkles if you can or another mix that gives off unicorn vibes.
How to Make
Making unicorn munch popcorn mix is magically easy!
Just spread the popped popcorn into an even layer on a rimmed baking sheet lined with parchment paper.
Then melt 1 1/2 cups of the white chocolate melting wafers in a microwave safe bowl, following the package directions, until smooth and creamy.
Scoop the melted chocolate to a large ziplocking bag, twisting to close.
Then snip off a small bit of the corner of the bag and drizzle the melted white chocolate evenly out over the popcorn until it’s all used up.
Working quickly spread the candy corn evenly out over the top, and the unicorn themed sprinkles.
Add both the remaining white chocolate melts and purple melts to a microwave safe bowl, and then melt them according to the package instructions.
Stir them together until evenly combined so you get a pretty pastel purple.
Scoop the purple chocolate into a large ziplocking bag just like you did with the white chocolate before.
Twist the bag to close, snip off a tiny corner of it, and drizzle it evenly out over the sprinkled popcorn mixture.
Let the popcorn rest until the chocolate has set, then break apart and serve!
Storing
This unicorn munch mix lasts for up to 3 weeks in an airtight bag on your counter.
