Popcorn Cake

A whimsical dessert combining crunchy popcorn, gooey marshmallows, and colorful M&M’s, perfect for parties and family gatherings.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 3/4 cup salted butter
  • 20 ounces mini marshmallows (2 x 10-oz bags)
  • 14 cups unflavored popcorn, kernels removed
  • 2 cups plain M&M’s
  • Optional: 1/2 cup crushed pretzels
  • Optional: 1/2 cup mini peanut butter cups
  • Optional: 1/4 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Optional: 1/2 cup chopped nuts

Instructions

  1. Lightly spray a 10-cup Bundt pan with nonstick cooking spray.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the salted butter and mini marshmallows. Heat in the microwave in 30-second intervals, stirring after each, until melted and smooth.
  3. Add the unflavored popcorn to a large mixing bowl and pour the melted butter and marshmallow mixture over it. Stir gently to coat the popcorn.
  4. Fold in the M&M’s carefully to avoid breaking the popcorn.
  5. Scoop the mixture into the prepared Bundt pan and press down firmly to mold the cake.
  6. Let the cake sit at room temperature for 2 hours to firm up.
  7. Invert the Bundt pan onto a plate to release the cake. Slice and enjoy!
