Ingredients

  • 10 cups Popped Jolly Time Popcorn
  • 3 tablespoons butter
  • 3 cups mini marshmallows
  • 6 drop neon green food coloring
  • 1/4 cup red and green sprinkles
  • 1/2 cup red and green M&Ms
  • 1/2 cup mini marshmallows

Instructions

  • Pop the popcorn, for 10 cups you will need 1 bag of bagged Popcorn. Pop the popcorn kernels and remove any un-popped kernels once done popping.
  • Line a baking sheet with wax paper or spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • In a large pot or medium saucepan, over medium heat on the stovetop melt butter. Once the butter is melted add 3 cups of mini marshmallows and the neon green food coloring.
  • Stir the marshmallows until they are fully melted.
  • Pour the popped popcorn into a large bowl, pour the melted marshmallow mixture into the bowl, and stir well to coat all of the popcorn. I suggest using a rubber utensil as it helps with the marshmallow sticking when you are stirring it.
  • Add in the 1/2 cup mini marshmallows, M&Ms, and red and green sprinkles to the marshmallow and popcorn mixture and mix well.
  • Using your hands grab a handful of the popcorn mixture and roll into balls. Place the balls on a tray or a baking sheet as they are finished being rolled.
  • Allow popcorn balls to set for 10 minutes before eating.
