celebrate: Halloween!

October 21st, 2009 - by

Here is another popcorn based Halloween treat!  Whenever I think of Halloween snacks, this is the first thing that comes to my mind.  I remember my mom making this popcorn cake as a child, and I still love it today.  And the good thing is that it can be made for any holiday – just switch out the candy and you have a delicious treat to celebrate with year round!

Marshmallow Popcorn Cake

2 1/2 quarts popped popcorn
1 10.5 ounce bag marshmallows
3 tablespoons butter
assorted Halloween mix-ins – I used M&Ms, candy corn and peanuts

Melt butter and marshmallows together.  Add popcorn and mix slightly.  Add in mix-ins and mix until the melted marshmallow mixture has coated all the popcorn.

Pour mixture into a bundt pan that has either been sprayed with cooking spray or buttered.  Turn out onto a serving dish and enjoy!
