Sweet...Extra Sweet Memories

Growing up Mom would make popcorn balls in the fall (usually around my Dad or brother's birthdays).  We gobbled them up like they were going out of style.  I found recipe that is good - but super sweet.  BAP and SSP enjoyed them a lot; I am sure it was the sugar content.

Popcorn Balls
adapted from: http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/candy-corn-popcorn-balls-10000001010471/

8 cups popped corn (1 bag of microwaveable Kettle corn works well)
1 cup candy corn
1/4 cup butter
1/4 t salt
1(10oz) bag marshmallows
cooking spray

Line a cookie sheet with parchment.  Dump popped corn and candy corn in a bowl.  Melt butter and marshmallows together; stir in salt.  Grease fingers and hands.  Toss together marshmallow mixture with popped corn and candy corn.  Form into 13 balls.  Store in an air tight container.
