Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

Popcorn Base
  • 2 bags Light Butter Microwave Popcorn Follow package instructions for microwaving.
Sauce Ingredients
  • ¾ cup Corn Syrup
  • 3 Tbsp Butter or Margarine
  • 1 bag White Chocolate Chips (11.5 oz)
  • ½ bag Marshmallows Use mini marshmallows for easier melting.
Mix-ins
  • 1 to 1½ cups Colored Sixlets (or any candy of your choice) Feel free to substitute with other candies or nuts.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Pop two bags of light butter popcorn according to the package instructions and transfer the popped popcorn into a large mixing bowl.
Making the Sauce
  1. In a medium-sized saucepan, over medium heat, combine ¾ cup of corn syrup, 3 tablespoons of butter or margarine, and the entire bag of white chocolate chips. Stir continuously until the mixture begins to gently boil.
  2. Once boiling, add half a bag of marshmallows to the saucepan, stirring until the marshmallows completely melt and you have a smooth, creamy consistency.
  3. Remove the saucepan from heat and carefully pour the hot white chocolate and marshmallow mixture over the popcorn, mixing gently to coat all the popcorn.
Mixing
  1. Fold in 1 to 1½ cups of colorful Sixlets carefully to avoid breaking the candy shells.
Serving
  1. Sprinkle additional Sixlets on top before serving, if desired.

Notes

Best served at room temperature. Can be portioned into small bags for grab-and-go snacking. Avoid refrigerating to prevent a chewy texture.
