Mini Harvest Corn Treats

How cute are these Mini Harvest Corn Treats? My kids had so much fun making these and I know yours will as well. These fun fall treats will be the hit at their class parties, a bake sale or your Thanksgiving feast. There are no rules, so make them your own. Let me know how they turn out!

What’s Needed

12 cups Popcorn (Popped)
½ cup – 1 cup Sixlets Candy
10 Corn Husks (usually can find at any local grocery store)
½ stick unsalted butter
¼ cup Brown Sugar
1- 10oz bag of mini marshmallows
Twine or string

Directions

1. Have your 12 cups of popcorn popped and ready to go. I used microwave popcorn but stovetop popcorn works just as good.

2. In a saucepan over medium heat, melt butter and brown sugar together. Stir for about 3-4 minutes until sugar is dissolved.

3. Add marshmallows to saucepan and stir until melted about 2 minutes.

4. Immediately add popcorn and mix together.

5. Add sixlet candy’s and gently mix.

6. To shape the corn shape it does help to rub a little butter on your hands to prevent mixture from sticking to your hands.

7. Now, take some popcorn mixture and with your hands shape into a corn on the cob shape. To make mini ones, use about a palm full of popcorn mixture.

8. Set popcorn cobs on a parchment lined cookie sheet. Continue to do this until all mixture is gone.

9. Let cool, about 10 minutes.

10. Now, take one cob and lay towards the top of a corn husk, slightly wrap and twist the bottom. Tie with twine or string.

11. This recipe makes 10-12 mini harvest corns.
