  4. Pour the melted almond bark over the puffcorn mixture and gently fold until coated.
  5. Spread the mixture in an even layer on the prepared baking sheet.
  6. Scatter the M&M's and sprinkles over the mixture.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 1 week; freezing is okay, though the candies may change texture. For a dairy-free variation, use dairy-free puffcorn, coating, and candy.
