Confetti Popcorn Balls
Vegetable spray
4 cups popcorn, popped
1 cup multicolored gumdrops, chopped
1/2 cup peanuts, chopped
3 cups miniature marshmallows
3 tbsp margarine
Spray large bowl with vegetable spray. Combine popcorn, gumdrops and peanuts
in bowl. Combine marshmallows and margarine in large saucepan and melt over
medium heat, stirring constantly. Pour marshmallow mixture over popcorn,
candy, and nuts, toss until coated. With buttered hands, shape popcorn
mixture into 8 balls. Work quickly to shape balls before mixture cools and
hardens. Allow to set until serving time.
Variation: Use Gummy Bears, M&M’s, small fruit snacks, or other colorful
additives instead of gumdrops.
