Ingredients
Scale
- 36 ounces (1020g) white candy melts, divided (I used Wilton bright white candy melts)
- 7.3-ounce bag (206g) of mini chocolate eggs with candy-coated shell, such as Cadbury Mini Eggs
- 2 cups pretzels (I used Butter Snaps pretzels)
- 4 cups assorted cereal (I used a combination of Kix, Chex & Cheerios)
- 10-ounce bag (283g) of easter m&m’s (or other small pastel-colored chocolate candy)
- ¼ cup pastel-colored sprinkles
Instructions
- Line the bottom of a large 17” baking sheet with parchment paper.
- Coarsely chop mini chocolate eggs into ¼” pieces and set aside.
- Combine pretzels and cereal in a large mixing bowl.
- Place candy melts in a microwave-safe bowl and heat in short bursts of 15 – 30 seconds until just starting to melt. Let sit and stir until smooth.
- Spread ½ cup of the melted candy onto parchment paper. Working quickly, smooth the mixture out to the edges.
- Mix 3 ½ cups of the melted candy into the cereal mixture (if the chocolate has hardened, simply reheat for 10 seconds in a microwave oven).
- Pour cereal out onto a baking sheet and spread evenly to the edges.
- Sprinkle with chopped chocolate eggs, m&m’s, and sprinkles while the melted candy is still warm
- Drizzle with remaining ½ cup melted candy.
- Wait 15 minutes prior to cutting to let your bark harden.
