Monster Popcorn Balls
Makes: 4 Popcorn Balls
Prep: 20 Minutes
Ingredients:
10 oz marshmallows
4 tablespoons butter
3 drops neon green food gel
1 bag popped popcorn
4 vampire teeth
Butter or olive oil spray
Candy eye sprinkles
Instructions:
In a deep pan on low heat. Add in marshmallows and butter. Stir until butter is melted and marshmallows are now a thick melted texture.
Add in neon green food gel. Mix well. Add in popcorn but careful to not add any kernels. Mix well until the popcorn is coated.
Let the mix cool just slightly so you don’t bur your hands rolling the balls. Lay out parchment paper. Spray hands with butter or olive oil spray to keep the balls from sticking to your hands.
Roll into balls and set on the parchment paper. Cut the vampire or monster teeth at the bend. Pull open an area in the middle of the ball. Add the teeth and form the ball.
Add on candy eye sprinkles. Place in the fridge for about 20 minutes to allow to form. Serve room temperature.
