I participated in Mom Blog Tour Sweets & Snacks Expo (#MomBlogTourFF) 
on behalf of Wendy’s Bloggers. I received Loacker products to facilitate my post, but my opinion and creative content are my own.

With just one taste you’re going to love these easy marshmallow hazelnut popcorn balls. They are easy to make and even easier to eat.

Being a busy Mom, I am always looking for easy recipes my family will love. When I can’t find exactly what I am looking for I have to get a little creative and come up with my own. This Easy Marshmallow Hazelnut Popcorn Balls recipe is exactly what every craving stands for. These delicious treats are crunchy, sweet, a little salty and contain a dash of chocolate. What more could you possibly ask for? 

I love using Loacker products in my recipes because there’s no colorings, no preservatives and no hydrogenated fats. 

“The secret that makes Loacker so irresistible and globally successful requires a lot of experience. With dedication and an unerring eye, we devote ourselves to the careful selection of the ingredients: Italian hazelnuts, real Bourbon vanilla, delicious cocoa, sun-ripened raspberries, fine Loacker chocolate according to our own recipes and high-quality milk and fresh mountain water.Categorically, we do not use hydrogenated fats in the production of our premium specialties.”

  • 1/2 cup unpopped popcorn 6 tablespoons butter
  • 1 tablespoon vegetable oil
  • Salted Butter 1-lb
  • 5 cups miniature marshmallows
  • 1 package Loacker Hazelnut Wafers
  • Salt to taste  

Chop the Loacker Hazelnut Wafers into smaller pieces and set aside. 

Add vegetable oil to a large saucepan, and heat over high heat. When the oil is hot, add your popcorn. Keep pan moving constantly to prevent burning. When corn stops popping, remove from heat. 

Combin melted butter and marshmallows in a large bowl. Pour mixture over the popped corn and stir constantly until marshmallows are fully melted.

Quickly add the wafer pieces and mix well.

I used Hazelnut for this recipe, but chocolate is always a good option!

Once the mixture has cooled slightly, smear butter on your hands or spray with non-stick cooking spray. Mix popcorn with your hands so that it is evenly coated and roll into balls. Top with a dash of salt. 

Let cool and enjoy!
