What treats are you making for the holidays? I owe a bunch of people (plus myself) a few pies plus I’m in the mood to make some savory pastries. And this, I’m making a bunch of this peppermint marshmallow popcorn too. Why? Because it is the bomb! Oh so good, super easy to make and it bags up nicely so I can use it as an edible Christmas gift too. Do you think teachers will like this? I hope so because I am all out of teacher gift ideas and Pinterest has me overwhelmed. I’m just not that all in Pinterest mom. LOL.

Anyway making this marshmallow peppermint popcorn was quick and easy. I went ahead and air popped the popcorn sans butter or anything else because all the additions would come later. Needless to say, there was a cleanup on aisle 5 during the process. My bowl just wasn’t big enough to handle the popcorn, popcorn, popcorn. I’ve linked the snap and instastory footage at the end so you can have a good laugh. Go ahead and follow me over there.

Don’t go too crazy on the pounding. I know you will feel the stress leaving your body as you pound but you want it to look like this, not like peppermint ashes.

Try not to eat the entire batch for yourself. I’m not making any promises, though. It really is that good. What’s on your holiday treats list?
