Easy Valentine's Day Snack: Candied Popcorn

This snack is super easy and would make a great Valentine's Day school party treat.

You will need:

• Candy Melts (red, pink, or purple)
• Popcorn
• Snack bags or make paper cones 
• Sprinkles, optional
• Decorative paper, for cones (I used cardstock.)
• Tape, for cones
• Optional: wax paper

Directions:

1. Make the popcorn.

2. Melt the candy melts in the microwave according to the package directions. If the melts get too thick, add a little vegetable shortening.

3. Place popcorn in a bowl and drizzle melted candy over the popcorn. 

4. Stir to coat all the popcorn. 

5. Add sprinkles.

6. Let the candy melts set/harden. This takes about 5 minutes. I found if I spread the popcorn out on wax paper, the popcorn dried better and not as clumpy.

7. While the candy hardens, make the cones. Cut out a piece of paper and fold into a cone shape. Secure with a piece of tape.

8. Fill the cones with popcorn, serve and enjoy!
