FAQs

Can I use regular-sized marshmallows instead of mini marshmallows?

Yes, you can chop regular marshmallows into smaller pieces as a substitute, but mini marshmallows melt more evenly and distribute better throughout the popcorn.

How do I prevent the popcorn from getting soggy?

Make sure to fold the marshmallow mixture gently into the popcorn and let it cool completely before storing. Avoid sealing in moisture by using an airtight container once cooled.

Notes

Use fresh popped popcorn for the best texture; avoid microwave popcorn with added flavors or butter.
Golden Grahams add a nice crunch and authentic s’mores flavor–graham cracker element.
The butter should be browned lightly to add a nutty flavor, but be careful not to burn it.
Melting chocolate chips in short bursts in the microwave and stirring frequently prevents burning.
This snack can be stored in an airtight container for up to 2 days to maintain freshness.
Feel free to customize with different types of chocolate or add peanuts for extra crunch.
