It looks yummy and you could use whatever candies and nuts you have on hand. You could also probably use unbuttered microwave popcorn instead of popping your own.
Ingredients:
vegetable oil cooking spray
3 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/3 cup popcorn (kernels)
3 tablespoons butter
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
6 cups mini marshmallows (12 oz)
6 (15 g) fun-size snickers candy bars, cut into 1/4 inch pieces
3 (3 inch) chocolate chip cookies, crumbled
1/3 cup chopped salted almond
1/2 cup orange and black m&m
Directions:
1. Spray the inside of a large mixing bowl with vegetable cooking spray, and lightly spray a baking sheet. Set aside.
2. In a 3 quart or larger, heavy-bottomed pan, heat the oil and popcorn over medium-high heat. Cover the pan and shake gently. Cook until all the kernels have popped, about 3 minutes. Place the popcorn in the prepared bowl.
3. In a medium saucepan, heat the butter over low heat. Add the vanilla extract and marshmallows. Stir constantly until the marshmallows have melted and the mixture is smooth, about 5 minutes. Pour the melted marshmallow mixture over the popcorn. Using a spatula, sprayed with cooking spray, stir until the popcorn is coated.
4. Spread the mixture over the prepared baking sheet. Sprinkle with the Snickers pieces, cookies, almonds and M & M's. Using a spatula, gently press the toppings into the popcorn.
5. Allow the mixture to dry for 1 hour. Break into 2 inch pieces and store airtight in a plastic container.
6. For party favors, place in small plastic bags and tie with colored ribbon.
