I love Easter! And I love the colors of Easter!
They are just so bright, cheerful and pretty.
Easter colors just make me smile! 🙂
So this Easter treat is dedicated to the beautiful colors of Easter!
It is really a big kaleidoscope of pretty, spring, pastel colors.
This is a candy pizza!! It is basically a big pizza of chocolate bark. But it is formed in a round springform pan and can basically incorporate anything you want in it.
For this candy pizza, I laid out some wax paper in the bottom of a 9 inch springform pan. I then melted a bag of white candy melts and mixed in two cups of broken pretzels and spread that over the bottom of the pan for the base of my “pizza”
Then, I took 2 cups of popcorn and poured that over the top, slightly pushing it down onto the white chocolate layer.
Now comes the fun part! At this point, I chose two colored candy melts, (yellow and pink) put 1 cup of each in two different plastic freezer bags, microwaved them for 30 seconds, slit a corner in each and just started drizzling the chocolates all over the popcorn layer.
I then sprinkled some Easter M+M’s over the top, scattered several broken golden Oreo’s, placed a few pretzels, and then drizzled more colored chocolate over the top and finished off the look with some pastel confetti sprinkles!
The effect: Beautiful!!!
Now, when you cut into this, you can certainly cut it like pizza triangles (as I did above). But you will quickly find that the rest of this will just break all into pieces because it is after all, chocolate. And chocolate does not exactly slice like crust does.
I actually just broke this pizza all apart into pieces and we had a free for all!! (That is part of the fun!!)
This is such a fun and tasty craft to make with kids! Give them a handful of M+M’s and a bag of melted colored candy melts and let them go nuts!!
I hope that you and your kids have as much fun making and eating this Easter Candy Pizza as mine did!!
