Ingredients
- 4 cups popped popcorn
- 1 cup frosting total (in as many colors as you would like)
- Generous handful of sprinkles
- 1 cup M&M candies or your favorite Easter candies

- Drizzle frosting onto the popcorn covering it evenly. You can use as many different colors or flavors of frosting as you would like, as long as it is enough to cover your popcorn (about 1 cup).
- Decorate with sprinkles, jimmies, or colored sugar crystals to add some sweetness and color.
- Toss on some of your favorite Easter candies. M&Ms, Reeses pieces, malted milk balls, whatever you would like.
