Equipment

  • 9x13-inch baking dish
  • microwave-safe bowl

Method
 

Step-by-Step Instructions
  1. In a large pot, melt 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter over low heat, stirring gently. Once melted, add half of the mini marshmallows, mixing until puffy and glossy, about 2-3 minutes.
  2. Remove from heat and pour the marshmallow mixture over 10 cups of kettle popcorn in a large bowl. Fold gently to coat each piece, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. While warm, fold in remaining mini marshmallows, mini Cadbury eggs, mini Robin Eggs, and peanut M&Ms, ensuring they are evenly distributed.
  4. Transfer to a greased or parchment-lined 9x13-inch baking dish, pressing firmly to create an even layer. Cool for 15-20 minutes.
  5. Optionally, melt 1 cup of white chocolate chips with 1 tablespoon of coconut oil, drizzling over cooled bars. Add extra candy and sprinkles before chocolate sets.
