POPCORN S’mORES

This stovetop recipe adds popcorn to the original campfire version of s’mores

and turns the familiar snack into an easy, portable treat.

Note: Kids can form the popcorn s’mores into balls

using plastic sandwich bags as gloves.

–––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––––

1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup corn syrup

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

10 cups freshly popped popcorn, cooled (do not use air-popped popcorn, as the kernels

are too delicate for the hot syrup)

1 (10 1/2-ounce) package mini marshmallows

2 cups mini graham cookies

1 cup chocolate chips

1. Combine the brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a medium saucepan

and cook over high heat for 5 minutes (this mixture gets very hot).

Remove from the heat and stir in the baking soda.

2. Combine the popcorn and the marshmallows in a large metal or heat-resistant glass

bowl (not plastic; the heat could damage it). Drizzle the sugar mixture

over the popcorn, then gently stir in the graham cracker cookies

and chocolate chips.

3. Let the mixture set until cool enough to handle, then using buttered plastic

sandwich bags on your hands, form the mixture into golf-ball-sized balls.

Store in an airtight container. Makes about 30.
