I made mine with rainbow chip cake mix so I didn’t have to buy sprinkles. The batter was a little think with the above measurements so I added about 1/4 cup more oil and also was able to use 10 cups of popcorn. Very yummy!

This was tatsy, but not perfect. The amount of cake mix is too much. The mixture was so thick I had to add some oil to thin it. I think even half a cup of cake mix would be plenty. As the recipe is written the popcorn was super sweet. Cute idea, though. The guests at my daughter’s b-day loved it.

Ok so I have what is probably a stupid question lol but for the cake mix, do you keep it dry from out of the box or do you mix it with the eggs and such then use it? Lol

We made this for family movie night – yum! We found that the white chocolate/cake mix mixture went pretty far; we easily used 10+ cups of popcorn. I was glad, because there was more to eat! We did have to hide it in the pantry the next day, and it still did not last 24 hours.

This is perfect! My daughter and a group of 12 girls are exchanging recipes today, and sharing treats. I’m bringing this one. I’ve seen in all over pinterest lately, too, so I can’t be the only one that thinks this one’s a winner! I’ll let you know how it turns out. (I’m using mini M&Ms, ’cause I’m not a fan of sprinkles)

I just made this and I’m super excited to see how it turns out! When I made it, I followed the recipe as written on Tasty Kitchen (using 1 1/2 cups cake mix); the chocolate/cake mixture was pretty thick and it was somewhat difficult to coat the popcorn. I just checked out the recipe on Mrs. Schwartz’s blog and it says to use 1 cup cake mix — I guess that typo is the problem! I’m waiting for it to harden, hopefully it will turn out. Next time I’ll definitely only use 1 cup though.

Good stuff! Reminded me of the marshmallow microwave popcorn Jolly Time sold years ago. I was sad the day they stopped selling that stuff so it’s nice to know I can now make my own. I used a bag of microwave popcorn that claimed to make 12 cups and found I only needed to use half of the white chocolate mixture to thoroughly coat it. I love sugar but that half batch was more than sweet enough for me. The good news is that I can use the leftovers to make another bag tonight!

Super Yummy! I made it last night and in less than 24 hours, it is sad but true, it is gone! Really easy to make and the kids loved it. I loved it too much, my hips agree.

Really super duper delicious! The only reason I gave it 4 mitts is because the cake mix doesn’t truly dissolve in the chocolate, so bites have a grainy texture. HOWEVER. You don’t really care because MMMMMMMMMMM cake batter.
