COCONUT POPCORN BALLS

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and place popcorn in a large bowl. Combine peanut butter (or almond butter) and honey in a small saucepan and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly. As soon as the mixture starts to lightly bubble continue cooking for approximately another 30 seconds or less. Immediately pour the mixture evenly over the popcorn and gently mix with a wooden spoon or spatula until well and evenly coated. Stir in cashews. Once the popcorn has cooled, run hands under ice cold water for 10 seconds. Press small handfuls of the popcorn mixture firmly into 2-inch balls. Place balls on baking sheet and sprinkle with coconut. Let cool completely before storing. To store, individually wrap each ball in plastic wrap.
