Ingredients
 

Main Ingredients

  • 8.5 oz puffed corn (no hulls or kernels)
  • 13 oz white candy coating or melting wafers
  • 1 tsp neutral oil or coconut oil optional, helps thin the coating
  • 0.5 cup mini chocolate candies
  • 0.25 cup holiday sprinkles
  • 0.33 cup crushed peppermint candies or crushed candy canes
  • 0.25 tsp fine sea salt

Instructions

Preparation Steps

  • Line a large baking sheet with parchment and set aside.
  • Melt the white candy coating in a microwave-safe bowl in 30-second bursts, stirring after each. Stir in oil if needed until smooth.
  • Add the puffed corn to a very large bowl.
  • Pour the melted coating over the puffcorn and gently toss with a spatula until evenly covered.
  • Spread the coated puffcorn onto the prepared sheet in an even layer.
  • While still tacky, sprinkle on mini candies, crushed peppermint, sprinkles, and a light shower of sea salt.
  • Let set at room temperature until firm, about 15 minutes, then break into clusters and serve.

Notes

Variation: Swap the peppermint for chopped dried cranberries and a pinch of orange zest. Storage: Keep in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days; for crisper texture, store with a small packet of dry rice or a paper towel to absorb moisture.
