      I thought the recipe and assembly went fine. I did add the m&m’s before the marshmallow mixture and increased marshmallows by about 1/2 cup and added another Tbsp of butter to the mixture.

      This recipe was an expensive pinterest fail. The directions were sketchy at best and the marshmallow and butter syrup needed something else in it as it was melting together. It hardened too quickly and the m&ms would not incorporate and just fell to the bottom. It sounded like a good idea but it was a disaster.

        Agreed! The m&ms needed to be added before the marshmallow mixture. They broke apart a bit; but at least they were more incorporated into the popcorn and grahams.
