Firecracker Popcorn

I love easy and fun treats for kids and this Firecracker Popcorn was a big hit in our house!! Pop rocks are always a fun candy for kids, and they are the perfect addition to party popcorn for the 4th of July.

It is really the easiest snack to make! All you need is a bag of popcorn (or pop your own), white and red candy melts, festive m&m’s, sprinkles and blue or red POP rocks. All you have to do is coat the popcorn with the melted white chocolate, and add in all the toppings!! I drizzled red chocolate at the end to add in some more color.

You can find festive sprinkles at Michaels, Joann Fabrics, Amazon or Walmart.
