Today is "Treat Tuesday or Take a Trip Tuesday" we made a treat.  My sisters recipe for marshmallow popcorn was the treat today and it was oh so yummy!!!  It was so yummy, that I am going to have to drink water the rest of the day because I have already met my calories for the day.

Here is the recipe....very simple

2 bags of microwave popped popcorn
1 C. butter
1/2 C. White Corn Syrup
1 1/4 C. sugar
1/2 tsp. vanilla
3 C. Marshmallows

Cook popcorn according to microwave directions and place in bowl avoiding any of the unpopped kernels to get into the bowl.  Add three cups of marshmallows to the popcorn and set aside. 

Melt butter in sauce pan, when melted, add corn syrup and sugar.  Let this come to a rolling boil, stir constantly and let boil for 1 minute.  After boiling for 1 minute at a rolling boil remove from heat and add vanilla to the mixture.  Poor this finished mixture over the popcorn and marshmallows and mix together completely.  Enjoy!!
