Great Recipe! I used a good nonstick pot to melt all of the ingredients together, used 4 bags of microwaved popcorn, substituted the marshmallows with fluff. I also used the ceramic insert of my 12 quart crock pot to mix the popcorn together. I used pam on my hands and was done in no time. Thanks! This one is a keeper

Yummy! These were so easy to make and soooo good! My only complaint is that handling the popcorn to form into balls is a little difficult because of the temperature - it's hot! But no pain, no gain! Next time I make these (and there will be a next time) I will add a bit more popcorn to even out the mix more. I got lots of compliments on the popcorn balls!

Great recipe! I took one reviewer's suggestion and combined the popcorn and syrup mixture in a clean sink. This made it super easy to evenly coat the popcorn mixture and clean up was a snap by filling the sink with hot water. In one batch, I added candy corn...very cute for Halloween. Will definitely add this to my collection of favorites!

Huge favorite. Definitely add a little vanilla and lightly salt the popcorn with popcorn salt.

This was just what I have been looking for! A trick I used was to mix marshmellow mixture with popcorn and spread it out on cookie sheets for about 10-15 minutes then I shaped them into balls. I was able to shape the balls without greasing my hands and clean up was easy with just soap and water. I also replaced marshmellows with fluff. Thank you Kelli

very easy & quick. great for getting kids involved in creative tasking. even though i enjoy buttered, salted popcorn, this item didn't suit my tastes at first bite. maybe 'leftovers'will be better :)

These were so easy and so much fun for the kids. They tasted great!!! Just be sure and wait a few minutes after pouring the sauce over the popcorn...it can be extremely hot.

Quick & easy! First time making popcorn balls, will definitly make again. I made them for my son's class~they loved them! A couple of tips that worked for me was using the gloves sprayed with Pam, break the popcorn into three or more batches(much easier to work with plus you won't have to work as quickly),forming the popcorn in the muffin tins (quick and gave them a place to set up), for the clean up I boiled water in the saucepan to melt the corn syrup mixture then poured that water into my mixing bowl to help clean up that bowl. I was able to make 36 popcon balls out of this recipe.

I made these for a Halloween party. They do have the tendency to come across like a rice krispie bar because of the marshmallow, but I do like that they are not like rocks a few days afterwards. I'll make these again.

These were great! I made a different recipe the day before I made these and they stuck to your teeth so bad you couldn't even eat them! These don't do that. They taste great too! Also placing plastic baggies on your hands when shaping into balls is a big help..otherwise..ouch!!

EXCELLANT RECIPE!!! I have NEVER made popcorn balls in my life, and my husband said that he would like some, so I decided to try it. I was very nervous and when I found this recipe it seemed pretty easy, and boy is it ever!!! I two batches of 10 the first batch I added M&M's... REALLY GOOD!!! The second batch I left plain... they are both really good!!! I wouldn't change anything about the recipe... PERFECT 10!!!

What a fun and easy recipe. This is my first time making popcorn balls and they turned out perfect. Kids loved them. Tip to spray PAM on my hands to form the balls was a *big* help. Thanks!

I've never made them before, but this recipe was very easy. 3 bags microwave buttered popcorn. I did add vanilla for flavor and I used colored mini marshmallows for a little color. I used a muffin tin sprayed with pam to shape them, a 12 muffin tin made 36 balls. I shook them out over waxed paper, it was very fast and made it easy for my daughter to help.

Great treat! They were just like the popcorn balls I used to get from my neighbor every Halloween. Exactly what I was looking for in an old fashioned flavored treat.

I was searching for a popcorn ball recipe that did not involve using a thermometer. I needed something quick and easy. Luckily, I found this one. I made two batches. The 2 batches made about 40 baseball sized balls. I'm sure they'll be a hit at the charity sale. It was so simple to make these. I would suggest making your popcorn before starting the sugar mixture. I went through my 3 bags(6 bags all together for the 2 batches)of popped natural microwave popcorn and got all of the unpopped pieces out before tossing it with the sugar mixture. A 13x9 baking pan and a dutch oven held 3 bags and there was room for tossing. I used a cooking sprayed coated spatula to mix and it worked great. We then rolled the balls using our hands. Be sure you spray your hands with cooking spray first. I then let the balls firm up and cool a bit before wrapping them in cling wrap and using a twist tie to close them. The scent and taste of them brought back memories of Halloween and the fall carnivals I went to as a child. Thank you very much for sharing this recipe. I highly recommend it.

Yummy and easy!! This was my first attempt to make popcorn balls - something about the start of fall makes me crave them!! These were really easy to make and surprisingly not too messy. I used butter to grease my hands and found that I needed to re-butter every couple of balls I made, otherwise they stuck to my hands and pulled apart. I will probably wait until the mixture cools a little before I try and form them next time...ouch!
