Makes 8

5 cups air-popped popcorn
1/2 cup candy coated pieces (M&M's)
1/3 cup unsalted peanuts
2 tbsp margarine, melted
3 cups miniature marshmallows, melted

In a prepared mixing bowl, combine popcorn, candy coated pieces, and peanuts.

Place margarine and marshmallows in a 4-cup microwave-safe measuring cup. Microwave on high for 2 minutes or until melted and smooth, stirring once halfway through cooking. Pour over popcorn mixture; stir quickly to coat.

With buttered hands, quickly shape mixture into balls. Place on waxed paper. Let stand at room temperature 1 hour.
