Step-by-Step Instructions for Easter Puff Corn Recipe
  1. In a large mixing bowl, pour in about 8 cups of puff corn, ensuring it’s at room temperature.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine 1 cup of candy melts with 2 tablespoons of butter flavored shortening. Heat in the microwave on high for 30 seconds, then stir. Repeat until smooth and fully melted, about 1-2 minutes.
  3. Immediately pour the melted candy over the puff corn. Gently toss with a spatula, ensuring each piece is evenly coated.
  4. Spread the coated puff corn on a sheet of wax paper and sprinkle Easter sprinkles over the top while still warm.
  5. Allow the coated puff corn to sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes, or until the coating has fully set.
  6. Optionally, melt additional candy melts and drizzle over the set puff corn for a decorative finish.
  7. Break any large clusters into smaller pieces, transfer to an airtight container, and store at room temperature for up to a week.
