Sweet Sweetheart Treats
Every day is Valentine's Day when you make these treats for someone special. Gooey, sweet, and salty popcorn balls are just the right size for party favors, a dessert buffet, or hostess gift for any time of year . I’ve made them with different colored candies for every holiday: red and pink for Valentine’s Day, green for St. Patrick’s Day, black and orange for Halloween, green and red for Christmas, and multi-colors for our summer birthdays.
