Marshmallow Popcorn is ooey, gooey and utterly delicious! It’s slightly addictive and if you are not careful, you will eat the whole bowl!

We are big popcorn fans at our house and love all kinds of flavor combos like this Nutella Popcorn, Caramel Apple Popcorn and Key Lime Popcorn.

This recipe for Marshmallow Popcorn was one of the first recipes I pinned from Pinterest, back in the olden days.  It’s hard to remember life before Pinterest!

I experimented with a lot of recipes I found on Pinterest in the beginning and I found that the names of many recipes don’t always hold true. It’s a little bit of a risk when you try something you’ve pinned.

I found that the Melt in Your Mouth Chicken did not melt in my mouth. It actually did nothing in my mouth.

The I Want to Marry You Cookies were good but not sure they were marriage worthy.

Then I saw a recipe for this popcorn,  the pinner assured us that they were totally obsessed with this popcorn and couldn’t get enough of it. There was no link back to a blog so unfortunately I can’t give them credit.  I discovered that they were right,  this popcorn was amazing and my faith was restored in Pinterest.

How could anything that is covered in marshmallow, brown sugar and butter not be delicious??

The popcorn looks pretty gooey doesn’t it? Well it is but amazingly enough it doesn’t stick to your hands. Our hands were in the bowl a lot so we know for sure!

How Long Will Marshmallow Popcorn Last?

I was worried that it wouldn’t be any good the next day but I was wrong.  It wasn’t quite as gooey the next day but it was still delicious. Just be sure to store it in an airtight container.  Although it is best when first made it will keep for 1-2 days.

How to Make Marshmallow Popcorn

  • It is quick and easy to make because it uses microwave popcorn.
  • You can also pop your own popcorn if you prefer, be sure and remove any unpopped kernels.
  • Melt the butter, sugar and marshmallows together.  You can do it in the microwave or in a pan on the stove top.
  • Stir until marshmallows are melted and mixture is smooth.

  • Pour marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and stir until evenly coated.  Spread it out on a cookie sheet  or just pour it into a big bowl.
  • Start eating!  I promise you won’t want to stop.

This recipe makes a lot of marshmallow popcorn so it is perfect to share with friends.  I have halved the recipe and it works just great.
