Sticky Popcorn was unopen to other ane of those recipes nosotros were convinced my had Mom invented (like Pizza Bread).  It was melted marshmallows as well as popcorn stirred together to practise as well as an ooey, gooey treat.  We would larn inwards on Fri nights piece nosotros lookout adult man movies similar Harry as well as the Hendersons or Adventures inwards Babysitting.  To top it all off, she would add together nutrient coloring to the melted marshmallows to tint the 'sticky' of the popcorn to pink, blue, purple, or green.  We reckon that it was amazing.


The concept behind "Sticky Popcorn" was the same equally rice krispies or popcorn balls... melted butter as well as marshmallows heated together alongside rice krispies or popcorn added in.  The beauty of the sticky popcorn at our painting nights was that is was served warm, inwards large bowls.  To children.  To children who ate it alongside their hands.  We loved it!  We loved it thus much that nosotros e'er convinced our babysitters to permit us brand it.  I'm certain they loved the mess nosotros made of ourselves, the kitchen as well as anything nosotros touched alongside our food-coloring, sticky popcorn fingers.

This tamed version of Sticky Popcorn, the Sticky Popcorn Cake, is a swell version to brand for bake sales, potlucks, back-to-school parties, sleepovers as well as birthdays.  It is also swell to cutting into slices for kids' lunches.  But, on painting nights at home, I recommend you lot brand the original, messy version of Sticky Popcorn for your kids, too.   You tin add together M&M's, peanuts (but beware of peanut allergies these days...), chocolate chips, viscid worms, etc. to the master copy version or cake.  Whatever your kids volition love.  Let them help!
