That Popcorn marshmallow mixture is what they use to make popcorn balls! They Were a staple treat when I was a kid, especially in the fall at church. So delicious!
I love when the internet thinks it invented something and it’s just…a thing that’s been around forever. Aka popcorn balls, but unballed? 😂 Either way, glad you loved it
I know you’re taking a break from vlogging but I miss them 😢 lol just tuned in excited to see the recipes :) always looking for new recipes maybe I’ll try some depending on if you recommend 😊
Kataifi is the base for my favorite Arabic dessert, kunafeh (pronounced kin-a-feh). It’s a top and bottom layer of the kataifi dough, pressed into a simple syrup soaked crust, with a middle of rose and orange blossom melted cheese (mozz texture). It’s absolutely delicious and seen as a celebration food! Highly recommend you try it even though it isn’t TikTok viral quite yet!
I make feta pasta like once a month because feta lasts so long in the fridge that it’s an easy, low effort meal that tastes soooo good. I add spinach to it when I stir it all up, and mannn. So tasty.
It's delicious! I waited so long to try that recipe because I assumed it would be overrated after trying a few viral recipes before that didn't impress. But I love the baked feta pasta. Tangy, sweet, savory, salty. A bit spicy from the chili flakes. What's not to love.
Love this series of trying Viral things so I don't have to ❤ I'm usually a silent viewer but love your content!! Just wanted to say thank you!! Happy 4th 🎉
Marshmallow with popcorn is NOT a new thing at all. Has noone ever had a popcorn ball before??? It's literally the same thing. I have had popcorn with marshmallow since I was a little girl and I was born in 1973. I even looked it up, popcorn balls were first in a cookbook around 1861.This is not a new thing at all. So if they think that is amazing try popcorn, butter, brown sugar and marshmallow. Melt the butter, add brown sugar until melted, add marshmallows. Finally add the popcorn and mix.
Came here to make this comment! Thank you for doing it already 👏👏👏👏👏 Just another example of children on the internet thinking they invented everything 😂
Might not be new but new for a lot of ppl via RU-vid / ig. I’ve never seen it and I’m from a small island because it’s not a common treat , it’s kinda like a movie theater food and that’s it .
It's delicious if you use good tomatoes. I use a higher ratio of tomatoes to feta, and add shallots, garlic and chili flakes. Very simple yet flavorful!
Carrie I love your cooking/testing viral recipe videos they are so cozy and such a treat to watch. Do give us more of these! Also you should try adding cottage cheese to your daily protein smoothie for extra protein!
Love the video ❤ would love more like these 😊 But please please be careful with baking paper, I had an oven fire because of improper use 🫣 You should have any sticking out as that part can actually burn 🔥
I love cottage cheese and am very picky about it. I think the Trader Joe's brand tastes good--but if I happened to buy a tub that was sub-par, baking it like you did would be a good way to use it up.
But...those are just the popcorn balls we had as kids in the 80s and now it's a "viral TikTok" recipe??!! 🤣🤣🤣🤦♀ It's making me laugh but also, sometimes I hate social media. 😂😂 I suppose everything old is "new" again!
I grew up in Az in the early 2000s and I remember it being a staple around Halloween/fall time. Definitely not a new concept. But it’s probably just regional like a lot of other things haha
I'm sorry but whoever decided we need to smash rice krispie treats into a pan and try to cut them? Nah. Dump that on a sheet of wax paper on the counter and just tear chunks off. Why are we working so hard to ruin them? Why?
Am I the only one that thinks these viral pistachio chocolate bars don’t look appetizing at all and look like they are filled with baby poop? 😂😂no? Just me?
With the chocolate if you do a deeper mold make sure to get the sides and then pour some of it out back into the bowl on the top so that it’s super thin and coats the walls too!
Acc to other comments, I'm right--this is how we used to make popcorn balls. I remember our family getting enormous tins for Christmas full of popcorn balls--the marshmallow was colored red and green. I feel like it was a v 70s thing. I personally think not using microwave popcorn would be better--just use air-popped corn.
Have you tried fluff for rice crispy treats? I wouldn't expect it would work because it's much looser than melted marshmallows. Usually in the melting process they cook to a firmer "ball stage" than just what marshmallows uncooked would be.
for the chocolate bar, you need less on the bottom/top (the initial layer) and coat the sides then probably wait longer in the fridge or toss in the freezer.
If you are looking for some tortillas that have more protein and fiber in them, look for the mission carb balance tortillas. They have them in many different sizes and in both whole wheat and white tortillas, and they have almost what you should have in fiber and quite a bit of protein. We use these as my husband is a diabetic.
i have been thinking about the marshmallow popcorn for a week and came back to comment to let you know that i have purchased the ingredients and will finally be making it this evening!
And the chocolate with Kataifi Pastry is the same as Baklava with chocolate around it, and instead of chopped pistachio and honey/syrup they are using pistachio butter. Again looked it up and that recipe is around 1600's. I think these people have just found their grandma's old recipe books or something and then just minimally tweaking them and then saying look what I came up with. No you didn't (insert eye roll).
I’ve been eating sticky popcorn aka marshmallows and popcorn since I was a kid. I’m surprised it’s popular now lol I also add some vanilla extract and a bit of brown sugar it’s so good
I want to try the marshmallow popcorn but I don’t want to deal with the clean up! (I don’t have a dishwasher machine lol) Also: I would love to see you do more recipe videos!
Just thought of the marshmallow popcorn being popcorn balls that I would get around Halloween! (Also made with the same ingredients, just formed into a ball) maybe that’s just a Midwest thing tho!
