Make It Monday: Marshmallow Jolly Time Popcorn Balls for Halloween

Halloween is one of my favorite holidays. I love everything about it, the decorations, the costumes,

the TOTing, the parties and events, the season, the treats. Oooh! The treats! Instead of just having candy sitting out at your party or in your child's classroom (check with your teachers, many school require store bought treats now), try making a healthier alternative by making popcorn balls. Sure, this recipe uses marshmallows and a little butter and some candies or sprinkles (if you wish), but popcorn also provides dietary fiber and protein, both are which are missing in most candy. Or skip making popcorn altogether and pass out JOLLY TIME 100 Calorie Mini Bags, there are 4 in a box. I know I would love it if someone passed that out to my kids. The marshmallow pop corn balls in the recipe on the right is what I used to make these Halloween popcorn balls. I used the JOLLY TIME Butter Light with Smart Balance Microwave Bags to make these.

Bit of trivia for you - JOLLY TIME is an independent and family-owned company and has been for nearly 100 years and the the FIRST ever branded popcorn. JOLLY TIME is an American company from Sioux City, Iowa.
