Print Recipe

Thank you Sprinkle Bakes for the recipe!

Ingredients

  • 10 oz. 1 package mini marshmallows

  • 4 Tbsp unsalted butter (cubed)

  • 1 tsp vanilla extract

  • ½ tsp neon green food color

  • ¼ tsp fine grain sea salt 

  • 12 cups popped kettle corn

  • 8 plastic vampire teeth

  • Candy monster eyes

  • 2-4 long pieces dried papaya

Instructions

  1. Place the marshmallows in a large heat-proof microwave-safe bowl. Add the butter cubes on top. Place them in the microwave and cook for one and a half-two minutes, or until the marshmallows puff up. Remove the mixture from the microwave and whisk until the butter is incorporated. Add the green food coloring and salt. Whisk until it’s all well combined. 

  2. Place the popped popcorn in an oversized mixing bowl. Pour the melted marshmallow mixture on top and stir it all with a wooden spoon. 

  3. Spray your hands with baking spray or spread butter on them. Shape the mixture into 8 apple-sized balls and place them on a piece of parchment paper. Refrigerate the popcorn balls until they’re firm. 

  4. Use a knife to cut a slit on one side of the popcorn ball. Insert the plastic vampire teeth and shape the popcorn ball around it. Add the candy eyeballs above the mouth. 

  5. Cut the dried papaya in half lengthwise to make tongues. Place the slices inside the monster mouths.
