Ingredients
- 8 cups cooked popcorn
- 1/2 cup butter

Instructions
- Prepare popcorn and remove any uncooked popcorn seeds.
- Prepare candy by cutting into small bite size pieces, where necessary.
- Melt butter, marshmallows and white chocolate chips in the microwave. Start by heating for 30 seconds, then stir. Continue heating in 15 second intervals stirring between until the mixture is melted and well combined. Allow to cool slightly.
- Pour marshmallow mixture over popcorn while still warm, but not overly hot or it will shrivel your popcorn. Sprinkle candy over the popcorn and stir to coat popcorn with your marshmallow glaze and candy toppings.

That’s a great way to use leftover candy. Making this would make for a fun movie night for the whole family.
This looks like a great way to use all of that excess Halloween candy. I love the salty sweet combo too!
This would be perfect for our movie marathon tonight! Salty popcorn is what I like.
Wow, Love this idea. Thank you for linking up with us at #HomeMattersParty .We would love to see you again next week.
Hmm…I wonder if this would help the candy last longer in our house. My kids inhale it in and I bet this would help stretch it out longer. Thanks for sharing on Merry Monday. Pinned.
