Popcorn Balls

So for those of you who don't know I work at a daycare. Today we had a Fall Festival instead of a Halloween Party because some families don't celebrate Halloween so it was are way of getting around it. Anyways one of the activities we did was Popcorn Balls. And let me just say they are some of the most amazing things I have ever had so I decided to share it with all of you.
The best part they are incredibly easy to make. They consist of three things: Popcorn, marshmallow cream, and any candy you want. You simply take a sandwich bag and spray the inside so the marshmallow cream doesn't stick to the bag. Add at least two teaspoons of marshmallow cream to the bag (you can use more if you like) add about a 1/2 cup popcorn or more ;D to the bag along with your desired candy. We had M&Ms, Skittles, Nerds, and Candy Corn to pick from, but even if you wanted Snickers or Butterfingers or any sort of candy bar you could probably chop them up and mix them in. After you have added all of your ingredients you close the bag partially and squeeze out as much excess air as possible and finish sealing the bag. Then you mix it together until it's all coated in marshmallow. Then you get all of the mixture in a corner of the bag and form it into a ball. And then you enjoy the deliciousness that is a popcorn ball. I found that I liked mine best with nerds or skittles. (I mixed all the candy into mine :D )
