Ingredients:
8 cups popped popcorn (about 1/3 cup unpopped kernels)
1/2 cup (1 stick) unsalted butter
1/2 cup brown sugar (light or dark)
1/4 teaspoon salt (optional, for balance)
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 bag (10 oz or about 4 cups) mini marshmallows
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Popcorn:
Pop your popcorn and remove any unpopped kernels.
Place popcorn in a large mixing bowl. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Make the Marshmallow Caramel Sauce:
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, melt the butter.
Stir in the brown sugar and salt. Cook for 2–3 minutes until smooth and bubbling.
Reduce heat to low and add marshmallows. Stir constantly until fully melted and smooth.
Remove from heat and stir in vanilla extract.
3. Combine:
Pour the marshmallow caramel mixture over the popcorn.
Use a spatula or wooden spoon to gently stir and coat all the popcorn evenly.
4. Cool and Serve:
Spread the coated popcorn onto the prepared baking sheet in an even layer.
Let cool for 10–15 minutes. Break into pieces and enjoy!
