Instructions

  1. Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl.
  2. In a saucepan on the skillet over medium heat, add the honey and peanut butter.
  3. Stir to combine the ingredients, then add the marshmallows, cook 1-2 minutes, or until the marshmallows have melted.
  4. Remove from the heat and pour the mixture over the popcorn, toss to coat.
  5. Wait 15-20 minutes, when cool enough to handle, form into 10 popcorn balls.
  6. Serve within 1 hour, or store in an airtight container until ready to serve.

Notes

  • There's a lot of peanut butter "filling" in these popcorn balls. If you'd like to make them with less peanut butter, simply add 1-2 more cups of popcorn, or until the mixture reaches your desired consistency of popcorn to peanut butter sauce.
  • These popcorn balls are best when eaten the day that they're made. They will stay good in an airtight container for up to 3 days at room temperature, but the popcorn balls have the best texture on the first day that they're prepared.
  • Popcorn balls are a naturally gluten free treat. Almost all brands of marshmallows in the US are gluten free, but I always recommend checking the label to make sure.
  • Spray cooking spray on your hands before forming the popcorn balls, so they're easier to handle and the popcorn "syrup" doesn't stick to your hands.
