Description
A delightful twist on a classic treat, combining crispy popcorn, melted marshmallows, and crunchy graham crackers for a fun snack.
Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup Popcorn Kernels
- 2 cups Mini Marshmallows
- 1 cup Graham Cracker Crumbs
- 1 cup Chocolate Chips
- 4 tablespoons Butter
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla Extract
Instructions
- Pop the Popcorn: Start by popping your popcorn kernels. Use either an air popper or follow microwave instructions for pre-packaged popcorn. Once popped, place the popcorn into a large mixing bowl.
- Melt the Butter and Marshmallows: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until smooth and melted.
- Combine Ingredients: Pour the melted marshmallow-butter mixture over the popcorn. Gently fold to combine, ensuring each piece is coated.
- Add Crumbs and Chocolate: Sprinkle in the graham cracker crumbs and chocolate chips, folding them into the popcorn mixture until evenly distributed.
- Form the Balls: Lightly grease your hands with cooking spray or oil. Scoop out a portion of the popcorn mixture and form it into a ball, pressing firmly to hold its shape. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Allow to Cool: Place the formed popcorn balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper. Allow them to cool and set for about 30 minutes.
Notes
For a lighter version, use air-popped popcorn and consider sugar-free marshmallows and dark chocolate chips for healthier alternatives.
