1

In a large saucepan, melt butter over low heat. Add marshmallows and stir until completely melted. Remove from heat.
2

Gently stir in the popcorn until fully combined. Stir in the Lucky Charms marshmallow bits, being careful not to over stir them (or the colors will bleed).
3

Once the mixture is cool enough to handle, grease your hands with cooking spray. Roll 24 balls and place them on a parchment-lined cookie sheet. Let cool completely and store in an airtight container.
4

These are best if eaten the same day they're made.

Expert Tips

Feel free to also use the Lucky Charms™ cereal in addition to the marshmallow bits, if desired, or any other favorite add-ins.
