In honor of popcorn week this week, food blogger Sarah from The Sugar Hit! created a psychedelic rocky road recipe. The Unicorn Popcorn Rocky Road has rainbow coloring, which, therefore, means it has a unicorn theme.
The popcorn-topped dessert is made with delicious ingredients such as Ritz crackers, Oreo cookies, mini marshmallows, white chocolate and salt. The squares are covered in homemade candied popcorn that will make your life look and feel more colorful. The whimsy-fueled rocky road recipe could also be altered to include pretzels, salted nuts or even peanut butter instead of salty crackers. The sweet, salty and crunchy snack gets its magical color scheme from sugar syrup.
The treat is fun for kids too.
