After we made our list of ingredients, we headed to Walmart. We found the M&M’s® Crispy in the aisle in front of the register and even spotted some snack size M&M’s® Crispy. We had to grab some of these for ‘on the go’ snacks, especially since they contain only 180 calories per serving.
As I said before, Bite Size M&M’s® Crispy Popcorn Balls are simple to make and do not have many ingredients but when you make them make sure that you have all of the ingredients out and that you do not have any expected distractions because you need to move quick.
When you make these M&M’s® Crispy Popcorn Balls be prepared to get a little sticky! In order to prevent yourself from having to go back and forth to the sink, keep a wet towel close by so you can wipe the sticky off your hands.
One thing I love about this recipe is that you the M&M’s® Crispy give the popcorn balls a fun chocolaty crunch to them. In addition, a great thing about this recipe is that you can add as many mix-ins as you want. You can add fruit bites, sunflower seeds, and so much more.
- 1 microwave bag of popcorn (I used a Tiny Popcorn- mini size- I found it at my local health grocer)
- 3 tablespoons of butter
- 4 cups of mini marshmallows
- 9.90 oz bag of M&M’s® Crispy
- 2 cups of chocolate chips
- Pop popcorn as directed
- Try to remove all of the kernels that did not pop
- Pour popcorn into a large bowl
- Melt butter and then mix in the marshmallows
- Stir marshmallow and butter mixture until all is melted
- Once melted pour over popcorn
- Stir
- Mix in your mix-ins
- Tear off a few sheets of waxed paper
- Grab a small ball of popcorn mixture with the waxed paper and form into a popcorn ball
- Place stick into ball and place onto a sheet of waxed paper
- Eat and enjoy

I’ve never heard of this type of M&Ms. However, regardless of what type are used, those popcorn balls look tasty and easy to make!
I’m not a crispy M&M fan but I do like sweet and salty together. I might need to try this with regular M&Ms.
Hmm… Let’s see. Popcorn, marshmallow, and M&Ms? sounds like a winner to me!
I’ve been searching for some fun recipes to share with my grandchildren on their next visit. I love this one for so many different reasons in that they are just the right size for a fun treat without overloading them on sugar. The calorie content is another winning factor and we are such M&M fans. I haven’t tried the crispy ones yet so will look for those.
I LOVE M&M’s Crispy, so glad they’re back! These treats look so fun and would be perfect for a kid’s playdate or party, anything on a stick seems to be a hit!
I saw these at Walmart yesterday and picked up a bag. We haven’t tried them yet, but I hear people raving about how good they are, so I am super duper curious. 🙂 The crispy popcorn balls sound really good too!
Stumbled!
These definitely look like a fun way to enjoy the M&M’s® Crispy! They’re as colorful as they are tasty I bet! #client
Yum! And I’m so excited that Crispy M&M’s are back!
