Notes
Yield: This recipe makes about 10 cups of bunny bait.
Popcorn Tips: We used Sweet and Salty Microwave Popcorn, as it is naturally dairy-free. Always double-check ingredient labels, as dairy can be hidden in flavourings and coatings.
Quantities: The quantities provided for the mix-ins are for reference only. Add as many candies, marshmallows and sprinkles as you desire. Feel free to add more melted chocolate as well. The key to bunny bait is to make it as fun as you like.
Storage: Store the bunny bait in a large air-tight container for up to 5 days to retain freshness. If making ahead for Easter, bag up the popcorn for individual treats and gift-giving.
Make It Your Own: Swap the Easter candies and sprinkles for other holidays or occasions to turn this into a year-round popcorn snack mix.
