Make the popcorn. Go ahead and make it on the stove, it is surprisingly easy. Pour 2 Tablespoons of oil in the bottom of a medium large pan. The oil should generously cover the bottom of the pan. HEat the pan over medium high heat. Put 3 test kernels in the pan. After test kernels pop, add 1/4 cup of popcorn kernels to the pan. Take the pan off heat when the sound of kernels popping slows down. Couldn't be easier. And popcorn cooked this way tastes so much better than popcorn from the microwave. Once you have the popcorn made, salt it liberally. It is so nice to taste the salty with the sweet marshmallow coating. Melt 1/4 cup of butter in a medium saucepan. Once the butter is melted add 3 cups of mini marshmallows. Stir until the marshmallows are melted. Turn off the heat. Add 1 teaspoon of vanilla. Do not overcook. Spread your popcorn out on a prepared cookie sheet covered with aluminum foil or parchment paper. Make sure you get out all of the unpopped kernels.

Pour the marshmallow mixture over the popcorn and then gently fold the popcorn with a spoon until most of the kernels are covered in mixture. Once the popcorn is covered in marshmallow mixture it is time to add the candy. But don't wait too long, you want the marshmallow mixture to still be warm and sticky. Sprinkle the candy onto the popcorn, concentrating on the area with the most drizzled marshmallow mixture. Allow the popcorn to cool. Bread apart into pieces and serve.
