M&M POPCORN CAKE

M&M POPCORN CAKE

If you’re wondering what kind of dessert you can pull together fast that will feed a crowd, this popcorn cake with M&Ms is it to make.

  1. INGREDIENTS (Serves 24)

    2 (3.2 oz.) pkgs. microwave butter-flavored popcorn
    2 C. salted dry roasted peanuts
    1½ C. plain M&Ms
    ½ C. butter
    1 (16 oz.) pkg. mini marshmallows

    DIRECTIONS

    Coat an angel food cake pan with cooking spray; set aside. Pop the popcorn and dump it into a very big bowl, removing unpopped kernels. Stir in peanuts and M&Ms. Set all aside.

    In a separate big microwave-safe bowl, melt butter in the microwave. Use a spoon like one of Rada’s Mixing Spoons to stir in the marshmallows; microwave until puffed. Stir until smooth and melted; let set for 2 minutes. Pour the marshmallow mixture over the popcorn mixture and stir to coat evenly. Press the mixture into the prepared pan. Cover and let set for 1 hour.

    Run a knife between the popcorn and the pan to loosen the edges. Place a serving plate upside down over the top and invert the pan to remove the cake. Use a sharp knife (Rada has lots to choose from, but the Slicer is perfect).

    Genius Tip: Since the popcorn mixture is sticky, putting your hand inside a plastic bag while pressing the popcorn into the pan works great!
