Line a 13"x9" baking pan with aluminum foil; spray with non-stick vegetable spray and set aside. In a large bowl, toss together popcorn, chocolate chips, cranberries, coconut and almonds; set aside.

In a saucepan over medium heat, stir marshmallows and butter until melted and smooth. Pour over popcorn mixture and toss to coat completely; quickly transfer to prepared pan. Lay a sheet of wax paper over top; press down firmly. Chill for 30 minutes, or until firm.

Lift bars from pan, using foil as handles; peel off foil and wax paper. Slice into bars; chill an additional 30 minutes. Makes 16.
