Great recipe! Turned it into an adventure in decorating for my 2 and 4 year old. We decided to go with popcorn ball snowmen or at least a 2 and 4 year old renditioning.

A lovely simple recipe that my little one could help mama with AND use her hands..wow! ...I used rainbow drops to add color , drizzled melted chocolate on in zig zags and it was loved by adults , kiddies and was safe enought for 1 yr olds to nibble.. a big hit.

It's pretty much Rice Krispies treats made with popcorn? It seems so obvious, yet it took so long for someone to put that together.
