Ghost Popcorn Balls are a delightfully spooky and fun treat that’s perfect for Halloween celebrations. With their irresistible combination of crunchy popcorn, gooey marshmallow, and a crisp, ghostly candy coating, these playful bites are sure to delight both kids and adults alike.

Ingredients

Scale
  • 16 cup popped popcorn
  • 10 ounce mini marshmallows
  • 1/4 cup butter
  • 1 bag Wilton bright white candy melts
  • as needed candy eyeballs

Instructions

1. 1. Prepare the Popcorn: Place the popped popcorn in a large mixing bowl, carefully removing any unpopped kernels that may have snuck in.

2. 2. Melt the Marshmallow Mixture: In a medium saucepan over low heat, melt the butter and mini marshmallows together, stirring constantly until the mixture is smooth and creamy.

3. 3. Combine the Popcorn and Marshmallow: Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and gently stir until the popcorn is evenly coated.

4. 4. Shape the Popcorn Balls: Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then grease your hands with butter and shape the popcorn mixture into small, compact balls.

5. 5. Add the Ghostly Candy Coating: Melt the white candy melts according to the package instructions and drizzle or dip the popcorn balls to create a spooky, ghostly look.

6. 6. Decorate with Candy Eyeballs: While the candy coating is still soft, press the candy eyeballs onto the popcorn balls to complete the ghoulish transformation.

7. 7. Set and Serve: Allow the candy coating to set completely before serving your ghostly treats.

Notes

Store in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 5 days. Avoid refrigerating, as this can cause the candy coating to sweat and become sticky.
