Rainbow & Popcorn Pot of Gold

Happy St. Patrick’s Day! This is another treat from our St. Patrick’s Day Dinner.

Pot of Gold Supplies:

*Almond Bark, melt in glass measuring Cup, in the Microwave, in 30 second intervals
*Water Balloons, inflated and dipped in melted chocolate, my chocolate bowls were kind of thin, so you may want to let them dry and dip again in melted chocolate for a thicker bowl and let dry
*Pam Cooking Spray, rubbed on balloons, I forgot to do this so they cracked a little
*Wax Paper
*Cupcake Liners/cups
*Lime Jello-O Popcorn, Recipe found Here.
*Rolos
*Gold Foil Chocolate Coins
*Air Heads Extreme Sweetly Sour Rainbow Candy, I found these at the Maverick

After dipping balloons in chocolate and letting them dry, I put more chocolate on the bottom because it will be to thin, (put a 50 cent piece size amount of Chocolate on the wax paper, if you want a more of a pot type base. Mine were going in a cupcake cup so I didn’t worry too much about the size.) let dry again and then poke a hole in the balloon with a pin and remove balloon pieces, fill with desired popcorn etc….
