Easiest Poppycock EVER


5 quarts (20 cups) popcorn
8 cups mixed sweet and salty nuts (I bought 2 assorted trays from Walmart)

3/4 cup corn syrup
1/4 butter or margarine
2 teaspoons cold water
2 cups and a heaping 1/2 cup (ie 2 5/8 cup) confectioners sugar
1 cup marshmallows

Reserve Popcorn in 2 of your largest mixing bowls, set nuts aside.  Mix remaining ingredients in a med. sauce pan, bring to heat and bring to a gentle boil, allowing marshmallows to melt completely.  Pour over popcorn mix and toss in nuts.  Can be formed into popcorn balls (butter your hands well for this) or spread out on waxed paper in a 1 inch layer to "dry" before storing in sealed ice cream containers as poppycock.  SUPER quick, SUPER easy, SUPER yummy!
