A single-serving popcorn ball for kids, made by coating popped popcorn in warm caramel and pressing it into a ball. Wrap it and chill until firm before serving.

Ingredients

  • Caramel syrup candy, or topping, enough to coat
  • 1/2 cup popped unsalted popcorn

Directions

  • Set the caramel topping on the Easy-Bake Oven warming tray until it is pourable, about 10 minutes.
  • Place the popped popcorn in a small bowl.
  • Pour the warm caramel over the popcorn and toss to coat.
  • With lightly greased hands, press the coated popcorn into a single ball.
  • Wrap the ball in plastic wrap.
  • Chill until firm before serving.

Notes

Refrigerate within 2 hours of making. Wrapped ball keeps 3 to 4 days; best the same or next day.
