Halloween Popcorn Balls

  • 6-8 cups Popcorn
  • 1 bag marshmallows
  • 2 TBSP Butter or Margarine
  • food color (optional)
  • 1/2 cup candy corn

We are going to make these just like rice crispy treats. They are even easier in the microwave!

I popped 2 bags of popcorn…lightly salted plain kind.

Then in a large Micowave safe bowl I placed the bag of marshmallows and butter. Now is when you want to add the food coloring if you want to make you popcorn ball colorful!

Microwave on High for 1 minute.

Stir and then return to the microwave in 30 second increments until the marshmallows are melted.

I have a HUGE BOWL! This is what I recommend. Get out you biggest bowl. Place the Popcorn inside. Now pour the marshmallow mixture over the corn and stir. Add the Candy Corn.

Now, butter your hands or spray them with Cooking spray. Grab handfuls of the mixture and shape them into balls. Place them on a wax paper lined cookie sheet. Store in air tight bags.

Makes about 9 popcorn balls!
