In celebration of my 100th post I am in the kitchen with Natalie and were making marhmallow popcorn balls!

Hi glad you are joining us in the kitchen! Today Natalie and I in celebration of my 100th  Blogger post are making marshmallow popcorn balls. We had to go buy a new Popcorn air popper. You will have either popcorn popped on the stove /no butter or air popped its the best choice. For this recipe you will need  

I air popper
about 9 cups of plain popped corn
1 bag of marshmallows
About 1/4 cup of margarine

Food color if you like
candies or shots to sprinkle
Baggies

So first you will melt the margarine in a big non stick pot/ meanwhile pop the corn
When the margarine has fully melted add the bag of marshmallows to the pot cook on the lowest setting. When all is melted this would be the time to add food color. Now add the popcorn slowly while your kitchen assistant slowly mixes.

Turn stove off and now it's time for the fun part. Grease hands up with margarine and start forming the balls . Place balls on buttered pan to fully cool.  Now you can sprinkle on the candies of your choice. When cooled place in baggie. Eat and enjoy, but be quick they will be gone before you know it!
This is a perfect recipe to do with children and there is not really a whole lot of sugar either! Yummy too!
We sprinkled the popcorn balls with chocolate sprinkles. Little Natalie is so very proud of her afternoon in the kitchen.
