Chocolate Chip Kettlecorn Treats!

We are hankering down for Hurricane Irene here in the Northeast... I mean really, did the 'canes miss me so much they had to follow me from home (Florida)?! Wish I could feed this lion of a storm & turn it into a lamb... but I can't! Instead, I am busy prepping for the 'cane & making snacks that are non-refrigerated in case we lose power. Northeasterners... get those survival kits ready!


***This is not a complete list 
~  Just food for Thought!***

  1. Full Gas Tank
  2. Cash (credit card machines won't work)
  3. Canned Goods
  4. Non-electric Can Opener
  5. Bottled Water
  6. Boxed Milk
  7. Snacks
  8. Fill your tubs! (for boiling water or wash-up water)
  9. Batteries
  10. Radio
  11. Candles
  12. Baby Wipes! for you~ even if you do not have a baby!
  13. Prescriptions
  14. OTC drugs (aspirin/acetaminephin/ibuprofen)
  15. Baby needs (diapers/wipes/formula)
  16. A little Stash of inside busy stuff for your child (crafts, a new coloring book, etc.)
  17. Pet needs
  18. Bolt down/bring in outdoor stuff including potted plants
  19. Do NOT leave any pets outside 

OK, on to a snack I made... Thanks to my friend Rose, we've had a yummy supply of Popcorn Indiana  Kettlecorn ... yum... So I got the idea to make these "Treats" with the kettlecorn. Growing up, one elderly neighbor always made popcorn balls for Halloween & she, God rest her soul, was my inspiration. 
Stay safe everyone!!!!


Chocolate Chip Kettlecorn Treats

  • 1/4 cup Butter (1/2 Stick)
  • 6 cups Mini-Marshmallows (1 bag)
  • 6 cups kettlecorn
  • 1 cup Chocolate Chips (I used mini-morsels)

In a good-sized glass bowl, melt the butter in the microwave. Add the marshmallows into the bowl with the melted butter & mix until they are covered. Microwave the marshmallows at 30 second intervals, taking the bowl out & mixing after each 30 seconds until the marshmallows are fully melted. Add in the kettlecorn & then the chips & mix well! Make sure all is blended. Spoon into a greased pan & allow to cool. Cut into servings. Enjoy!


You all stay safe!!!

    I've been browsing online greater than three hours lately, but I by no means found any attention-grabbing article like yours. It's loνеly worth suffiсient fοr
    me. Personallу, if all website оwnеrs anԁ bloggеrs made just right content as you did,
    the іnternet mіght be a lot moгe hеlρful than ever beforе.
