Instructions
Procedure
- Melt butter in large saucepan on low heat. Add marshmallows; cook and stir just until melted.
- Remove from heat. Stir in 2/3 cup of the baking chips and Cinnamon Sugar. Immediately stir in popcorn, mixing gently until evenly coated. Let popcorn mixture stand just until cool enough to handle.
- Lightly grease hands with cooking spray. Shape popcorn mixture into about 16 balls (1/2 cup each). Sprinkle all over with Finishing Sugar. Place on parchment lined baking sheet to cool completely.
- Melt remaining 1 cup baking chips as directed on package. Pierce one popcorn ball with a fork or skewer to use as a handle. Dip tines of a separate fork into the melted chocolate and drizzle over the ball, turning as you drizzle to create a spiderweb effect. Repeat with remaining balls.
- Allow chocolate to set. Wrap leftover popcorn balls individually with plastic wrap and store in an airtight container.
Test Kitchen Tips:
- Use your favorite flavor baking chips in place of the white baking chips.
- Add any variety of candy-coated chocolates, mini chocolate morsels, dried fruit, or nuts in place of the white baking chips.
