Festive Popcorn Balls
for Any Party
Ingredients You'll Need for Your Popcorn Balls
5 cup popcorn, air-popped
1/2 cup candy-coated pieces
1/3 cup unsalted peanuts
2 tablespoons margarine
3 cups miniature marshmallows -- melted
How to Prepare Your Popcorn BallsIn a prepared mixing bowl, combine
popcorn, candy-coated pieces and peanuts. Place
margarine and marshmallows in a 4-cup microwave-safe
measuring cup. Microwave on high for 2 minutes or
until melted and smooth, stirring once halfway
through cooking. Pour over popcorn mixture; stir
quickly to coat. Quickly shape mixture into balls.
You can make them any size you like,
but typically anywhere from a tennis ball to a
softball are a good size. Depends on how many guests
you want to make them for.
Serve Up Some Fun
Place your popcorn balls into festive bags
with ribbons or on a platter. Keep covered with
plastic wrap until serving, as they can harden. If
you put them in baggies they can be treats to be
taken home by guests for a snack later. A cute party
favor!
