If you are looking to gift this popcorn or use it for birthday party goodie bags, I really like to use these bags for small sized portions.

This recipe is as simple as it comes!

First, pop both bags of popcorn and spread into an even layer on top of your parchment lined baking sheet.

Using a microwave-safe bowl, melt the white chocolate by microwaving for 45 seconds, and then for 30 second increments making sure to stir well between each microwave session.

To avoid seizing your chocolate, you’ll want to stop microwaving just before the chocolate is fully melted, and continue to stir to melt the chocolate fully.

Stir the cake mix into the white chocolate, and mix together until smooth.

Drop the chocolate mixture all over the over the popcorn. Use a rubber spatula to gently mix the popcorn and fully cover the popcorn in chocolate.

Scatter the sprinkles and m&ms on top of the popcorn and mix together again.

Allow the mixture to cool completely. It took at least three minutes before it was fully cool, but you may want to wait longer.

Break your birthday cake popcorn into pieces and enjoy.
