How to Make Popcorn Ball Treats

Author: Kimber

Ingredients

  • 6 cups popcorn - microwave or stove top
  • 16 large marshmallows
  • 2 Tbsp butter or margarine
  • 3/4 Tsp vanilla extract
  • 2 tsp sprinkles - colors of the sports team would be great!
  • Pam

Instructions

  • Make your popcorn or scoop out 6 cups of popcorn into a large bowl.
  • In a greased pot or large saucepan melt your butter on low heat. When it has melted, add 16 marshmallows and stir until melted with a rubber spatula. Spraying your spatula with cooking spray is very helpful! Once melted, remove from heat and add your vanilla.
  • Pour marshmallow mixture over your popcorn. Mix with spatula until evenly coated. Sprinkle in your colored sprinkles.
  • With greased hands, roll your popcorn balls. I can usually get 8 decently sized popcorn balls (think palm size).
  • Once balls are formed, place onto a piece of wax paper and let cool and set for 1 hour.
