Popcorn Truffles

Popcorn Truffles

Add M&M's just before shaping the balls to keep the chocolate from melting.

1 microwave bag of popcorn, popped

1 cup roasted cashews

1 3/4 cups light corn syrup

2 Tbs. butter

1 Tbs. white vinegar

1 tsp. salt

1/2 cup M&M's Minis



Place popcorn and cashews in a large bowl. In a saucepan, combine corn syrup, butter, vinegar, and salt. Bring to a boil over high heat; boil 6 minutes. Pour mixture over popcorn and mix with a large spoon to coat. Let mixture rest until cool enough to handle.

Lightly coat hands with vegetable cooking spray. Place a few M&M's in the palm of your hand, and combine with some popcorn mixture. Gently shape into a 11/20 ball. Repeat with remaining popcorn mixture and M&M's. Makes about 4 dozen.
