Description

These Funfetti Marshmallow Popcorn Treats are a delightful, colorful no-bake dessert perfect for parties and movie nights. Combining crispy popcorn with melted marshmallows and rainbow sprinkles, they offer a sweet, chewy, and festive snack that kids and adults will love.

Ingredients

Popcorn Mix

  • 8 cups plain popped popcorn (about 1/3 cup kernels)

Marshmallow Mixture

  • 4 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 1 bag (10 ounces) mini marshmallows
  • 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt

Add-ins

  • 1/3 cup rainbow sprinkles
  • Extra melted white chocolate or candy melts for drizzle (optional)

Instructions

  1. Prepare Popcorn: Place the popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl, ensuring all unpopped kernels are removed for a better texture and to avoid bites of hard kernels.
  2. Melt Butter and Marshmallows: In a medium saucepan over low heat, gently melt the butter. Once melted, add the mini marshmallows and stir continuously until the mixture is completely melted and smooth. Remove the saucepan from heat and stir in vanilla extract and salt to add flavor.
  3. Combine and Coat: Quickly pour the warm marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and gently toss with a spatula to coat all kernels evenly before the marshmallow sets.
  4. Add Sprinkles: Allow the mixture to cool slightly for about 1 minute, then gently fold in the rainbow sprinkles to maintain their vibrant colors without melting.
  5. Press Into Pan: Transfer the coated popcorn mixture into a greased or parchment-lined 9×13-inch baking dish. Use buttered hands or a spatula to press and flatten the mixture evenly for uniform bars.
  6. Set and Slice: Let the popcorn treats set at room temperature for 30 minutes until firm. After setting, slice into 12 bars.
  7. Optional Drizzle: If desired, drizzle melted white chocolate or candy melts over the bars before serving to add extra sweetness and decoration.

Notes

  • Mix in pretzels or mini chocolate chips for added crunch and flavor variations.
  • Perfect for parties, bake sales, or colorful movie night snacks.
  • Store leftovers in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days to maintain freshness.
