Preparation Steps
Pop the popcorn according to package directions. Place the popped popcorn in a large bowl and set aside.
Melt the caramel candies and butter together in a medium saucepan over medium-low heat, stirring constantly until smooth.
Pour the melted caramel over the popcorn and mix until all popcorn is evenly coated. Let cool for a few minutes.
Melt the semi-sweet chocolate chips in the microwave or over a double boiler until smooth.
Grease your hands with butter and form the coated popcorn into softball-sized balls.
Insert a popsicle stick into each popcorn ball, dip into melted chocolate, then roll in sprinkles. Place on wax paper and let chocolate set before serving.
Notes
Store popcorn balls in an airtight container at room temperature for up to 3 days.
