Hope you're ready to have your mind blown because these White Chocolate Marshmallow Popcorn Treats are about to do just that!
Have you ever had white chocolate on popcorn with a little bit of salt on top? No?? You haven't lived! I made it a few weeks back for a movie night and I ended up loving the popcorn so much I made it about 234 times since and then turned it into White Chocolate Marshmallow Popcorn Treats because when in doubt... ADD MARSHMALLOWS. It's my new solution to most problems!
The result was incredible and also a major problem. This sweet / salty / chocolaty / rainbow sprinkle situation was straight up dangerous. I could not be controlled... it was square after square of White Chocolate Marshmallow Popcorn goodness going into my mouth and there was no end in sight. Thomas eventually confiscated the pan or I would have easily devoured the entire thing. No shame in my game. It makes for the perfect dessert / movie night snack / sweet treat / breakfast / lunch / dinner. I've clearly lost my mind... but try them and you'll be right there with me!
And because I like to make your life as easy as possible - if you want the grab the same kind of sprinkles - you can order them right here on Amazon!

I have a popcorn recipe for you. Call it what you like, I had this in a restaurant.
Caramelized popcorn (coated heavily enough so that it is somewhat difficult to crush)
Caramel or butterscotch sauce
Ice cream (I like coffee, but vanilla or salted caramel ice cream also work
Whipped cream
Popcorn on bottom of a glass
Scoop of ice cream next
top with caramel sauce and whipped cream.
This is so good. Dig down the class to the bottom to get all of the flavors at once.
Top with caramel sauce,
Try it!
Can you please send a link to the pan you used to melt the marshmallows in please. Williams Sonoma has so many options and I want to get the non stick one you used. Thank you!
What was the type of pan you used to melt the marshmallow in? You said you had been searching for one and you loved it. I’ve been looking too, so hard to find a good one. Thanks!
These are on if my favorite sweet treats. Planning on making some today. Do you ever add a little extra chocolate - like maybe some spring inspired m&ms? Would that be too much?
omg sounds delish! go for it!
When you say 16oz of mini marshmallows, is that by weight or volume? If it’s weight then about 2 bags?
weight
Could I just do this as like " caramel corn" ? I think that would work.
sure
I was going to make these for a snack for coworkers but I have to make them the night before. Will they still be good tomorrow?
best if served within 8 hours!
If I made these a day ahead, would they still be good next day? Or best served immediately?
best served immediately!
