Ingredients

  • 7-8 c. salted popcorn
  • 1 1/2 c. pretzels (small shapes or crushed slightly)
  • 1 c. unsalted salted peanuts
  • 7 oz. dark chocolate candy melts melted
  • 2 oz. Valentine's sprinkles

Instructions

  1. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper or Silpat. First, spread out popcorn. Then evenly top with peanuts and pretzels. 

  2. Drizzle snack mix with about half of the melted dark chocolate candy melts and sprinkle with half of the sprinkles. Allow to set, about 5 minutes. 

  3. Once set, use a spatula or clean hands to gently stir and flip snack mixture. Drizzle with more chocolate and top with sprinkles. (You may want to reserve a little of both to stir things up one more time.)

  4. Once you've used up all of the chocolate and sprinkles, and chocolate has set completely, serve or store in an airtight container for up to 48 hours.
