Hello hello! It’s been such a busy month that I feel like I blinked and it is already over. It’s cool, though. I am super excited for Halloween and carrying on some of our favorite traditions.

Yesterday I decided to whip up a Halloween treat with my daughter. My toddler thought this Monster Marshmallow Popcorn was absolutely hilarious and she loved adding the candy eyeballs.

I like really simple recipes like this. I also love to bake. Mummy Brownies or Spider Cookies are some of our faves, but sometimes you need a treat that takes less than 5 minutes to make. Ya know!? Plus, what is more perfect for a movie night than popcorn! Hocus Pocus, anyone?

  • Spread popped popcorn onto wax paper, and remove any un-popped kernels.

Marshmallows, butter and brown sugar in a large saucepan which is off-white.

  • Add Halloween sprinkles and candy eyeballs.

I mixed some pink and white sprinkles in with the regular Halloween mix that I bought. I love pink and so do my two little girls, it just made this popcorn a little more ‘us!’

Pro Tips:

Any time I am dealing with melted marshmallow I like to spray a spatula with cooking spray before stirring. Doing this makes the marshmallow so much easier to manage!

I love Sprinkles. They make everything more fun! Do you call them Sprinkles or Jimmies? I hear that’s a thing in some parts…

Now that I’ve made some Halloween treats, I can think about costumes too! I love dressing up and making a big deal out of Halloween, especially with kids.

    This is by far, the best Monster Popcorn recipe that I’ve found online! It only requires ingredients that most of us already have in our home…unlike other recipes I’ve found for the same concept. I began making it for my daughter last year, and we’ve made it at least 8 times since! 😁🎃💜
