Popcorn Balls
Popcorn balls are a treasured ritual at Halloween. But frequently they are stuffed with sugar. This Popcorn Balls recipe is created by agave nectar and peanut butter, fastened with chocolate-covered pretzels and dehydrated cherries for a smaller but still extraordinary treat.
Agave syrup or nectar is the generally sweet juice obtained from the agave plant. It contains a lower glycemic index and is lower in calories than sugar, but is yet more delightful. Use it in moderation when replacing for sugar. See for it near other sweeteners in well-being food stores and well-stocked markets.
These Chocolate Pretzel and Cherry Popcorn Balls are simple to make ahead for gatherings. Just cover them airtight, and they’ll stay for up to two days. But, they taste best on the day they formed.
I adore these easy-to-make popcorn balls that are super speedy to prepare ahead of time and a healthy workday snack. These popcorn balls are certain to be a blow to your family and colleagues all around! Combining honey, peanut butter, dark chocolate, pretzels, and freeze-dried cherries – they have a sharp blend of sugary vs savoury. Try presenting them for your Halloween gathering this year. I am sure you will enjoy it.
