Reminiscent of Funfetti birthday cake, this healthy popcorn recipe is a fun twist on a favorite sweet treat. Melted white chocolate and rainbow sprinkles coat microwave popcorn for an easy 10-minute dessert or snack.

  • Place chocolate chips in a microwave-safe bowl and microwave on Medium in 30-second increments until softened, 1 to 1 1/2 minutes, stirring several times to make sure the chips don't burn.

  • Add oil to the chocolate, stirring continuously until the mixture is smooth. Transfer to a medium bowl. Add the popcorn and sparkling sugar (or sprinkles) and toss until evenly coated.
