Ingredients

1 cup light brown sugar, firmly packed

1/2 cup butter

1/2 cup corn syrup

1/2 teaspoon baking soda

10 cups freshly popped popcorn, cooled (do not use air-popped popcorn, as the kernels are too delicate for the hot syrup)

1 (10 1/2-ounce) package mini marshmallows

2 cups mini graham cookies (we used Teddy Grahams)

1 cup chocolate chips

Directions

Step 1

Combine the brown sugar, butter, and corn syrup in a medium saucepan and cook over high heat for 5 minutes (this mixture gets very hot). Remove from the heat and stir in the baking soda.

Step 2

Combine the popcorn and the marshmallows in a large metal or heat-resistant glass bowl (not plastic; the heat could damage it). Drizzle the sugar mixture over the popcorn, then gently stir in the graham cracker cookies and chocolate chips.

Step 3

Let the mixture set until cool enough to handle, then using buttered plastic sandwich bags on your hands, form the mixture into golf-ball-sized balls. Store in an airtight container. Makes about 30.
