Preparation Steps
- Begin by popping enough plain popcorn to fill about 16 cups, discarding any unpopped kernels. Spread the popcorn on a large baking sheet.
- In a large pot over medium heat, combine mini marshmallows and butter, stirring until smooth and glossy for about 4-5 minutes.
- Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the popcorn in a mixing bowl and gently fold until coated thoroughly.
- Butter your hands lightly and form small handfuls of the mixture into balls the size of golf balls, placing them on a lined baking sheet.
- Let the formed popcorn balls sit at room temperature for about 30 minutes to 1 hour to cool and set properly.
- Melt the Wilton Bright White Candy Melts in a microwave-safe bowl for about 30 seconds, stirring until smooth. Dip tops of cooled popcorn balls and decorate immediately with candy eyeballs.
- Allow the candy coating to set completely before serving and store leftovers in an airtight container.
