Directions:
- In a heavy pan put sugar, karo syrup, butter, water, salt
- Over med heat stir until sugar dissolves
- Boil to soft ball stage- 228' -230' F
- Remove from heat add vanilla
- Pour over unsalted, unbuttered popcorn*****
- Pour little at a time
- Let cool enough to handle
- Then with buttered hands shape into balls
- **** I found that the bottom of a 21 lb turkey roasting pan was the approx. amount of popped popcorn needed for 1 batch
- To make it easier I would also spread it out on a commercial cookie sheet
- To fix nice for gifts:
- I would get the colored plastic wraps ( blue, red, yellow, and green)
- From the store and tear off approx square pieces and put the popcorn ball in the middle.. bringing the sides up to the top of the ball and tying with a couple of pieces of curling ribbon..
