- · 10 oz. bag of mini marshmallows
- · 1 cup of orange, red, yellow candy covered chocolates
- · Non-stick cooking spray

DIRECTIONS
Step 1:
Pop the popcorm and allow it to cool. Once cooled, put your popcorn in a large bowl or container and make sure to remove any unpopped kernels or burnt popcorn. Set aside.
Step 2:
In a large microwave-safe bowl, microwave your butter on high until melted. About 30-45 seconds.
Step 3:
Once your butter is melted, safely add your marshmallows into your butter and mix to coat the marshmallows. Microwave your mixture on high until marshmallows look puffy and melted (about 1 to 1 ½ minutes).
Step 4:
Add in your cup of orange, red, yellow candy covered chocolates and mix gently into your melted marshmallow mixture.
Step 5:
Safely pour your melted marshmallow mixture into your large popcorn bowl and mix carefully until the popcorn is coated.
Step 6:
Spray your hands lightly with non-stick cooking spray and carefully grab your popcorn mixture and start forming them into balls. Place them on the wax paper to set.
Step 7:
Once cooled, wrap each popcorn ball in plastic wrap.
Step 8:
Enjoy with your friends and family and have a BALL!
