  • 2-3 drops neon green gel food coloring

Preparation

  • Microwave two bags of popcorn and place the popped popcorn in a large bowl.
  • In a large saucepan, melt the butter over low heat. Add the miniature marshmallows and stir until completely melted.
  • Add 2-3 drops of neon green gel food coloring to the melted mixture and stir until well combined.
  • Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the popped popcorn. Stir gently but thoroughly until the popcorn is evenly coated.
  • Allow the mixture to cool slightly, then use your hands to shape the mixture into balls. Wet your hands with water to prevent sticking.
  • Place the popcorn balls on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper to cool completely.
