Additional Instructions For The Classic Popcorn Mix
- Transfer the classic popcorn mix from the large bowl to a baking tray lined with parchment paper.
- Melt the orange candy melts according to the package instructions.
- Using a large fork, drizzle the melted orange candy over the popcorn mix (have fun with this step!)
- Place candy eyes on the melted chocolate before the chocolate hardens.
- If the chocolate hardens before you've added all the candy eyes, then reheat the orange chocolate for a couple of seconds. Be very careful not to overheat the chocolate - it's very easy to do and make your chocolate rock-hard and you won't be able to use it.
- Then, dip the back of the candy eyes into the orange chocolate and place it onto the popcorn mix.
