Halloween Candy Corn Cereal Popcorn Balls

Right before October I went on a hunt for Halloween recipes. I searched every magazine I could get my hands on and I looked all over the internet to pick recipes. I came across this recipe online and thought it was a cute idea for popcorn balls and had to try it (with a few changes).



Recipe Review:

Ease: The popcorn balls we not hard to make, but they can be messy if not careful.
Taste: Sugary, but not much flavor.
Pros: Quick, easy, and Cheap.
Cons: Not much flavor

What you need:

2 cups Reeses Puff cereal
4 cups cooked popcorn
2 cups candy corn
4 tablespoons butter
10 oz marshmallows
4 tablespoons jell-o (orange for Halloween)

Directions:

Premix the cereal, popcorn, and candy corn. You could use whatever cereal you think would work best. In a large pot melt butter over a medium to low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until melted; then add jell-o.

Turn off the heat and add cereal, popcorn, candy corn mix. Mix well.

Let the mix cool for about 10 minutes. The coat your hands with butter or put sandwich bags over them and form popcorn balls out of the mix.


Serving Suggestions:

These would be okay to be served at a kids Halloween party.
