Categories     Candy

Time 45m

Yield 9 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 4

3 1/3 ounces microwave kettle popcorn, popped according to manufacturer's directions, unpopped kernels removed
1/4 cup butter
2 cups marshmallows
3/4 cup M&M's plain chocolate candy

Steps:

  • Butter a 9x9 inch square baking dish. Line with plastic wrap, allowing it to overlap on the ends. (The butter will keep the cake from sticking to the sides, and the plastic wrap will make the cake easy to lift out of the pan.).
  • Melt butter in a saucepan.
  • Add marshmallows and melt over low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon.
  • Remove from heat. Stir in popcorn very quickly and mix well.
  • Fold in M&Ms using a spatula, again working quickly to prevent the candy from melting.
  • Pour into pan, pressing the mixture firmly into the pan with the back of a wooden spoon.
  • Cool completely.
  • Lift plastic wrap out of the pan and invert onto a plate. Peel the plastic wrap off the cake.
  • Cut cake into desired number of pieces.

Tips:

  • Use fresh popcorn. Stale popcorn will not produce a good-tasting cake.
  • Use a variety of marshmallows. Different flavors of marshmallows can add a fun and unique twist to your cake.
  • Be patient when melting the marshmallows. It takes time to melt the marshmallows completely, so don't rush the process.
  • Gently fold the popcorn into the marshmallow mixture. Over-mixing will cause the popcorn to break.
  • Press the popcorn mixture firmly into the pan. This will help to hold the cake together.
  • Chill the cake for at least 2 hours before serving. This will allow the flavors to meld and the cake to set.

Conclusion:

M&M Popcorn Cake is a fun and easy dessert that is perfect for any occasion. The combination of popcorn, marshmallows, and M&Ms creates a unique and delicious treat that everyone will love. With a few simple tips, you can make a perfect M&M Popcorn Cake every time. So next time you're looking for a sweet treat, give this recipe a try!
