    OLD-TIME POPCORN BALLS

    List of Ingredients




    20 C Popcorn (1 cup unpopped)
    2 C Sugar
    1 C Water
    1/2 C Light corn syrup
    1 tsp Vinegar
    1 tsp Salt
    1 tsp Vanilla

    Recipe



    Preheat oven to 300°.
    Remove all unpopped kernels from popped corn. Put popcorn in a large roasting pan; keep warm in oven.
    Butter the sides of a 2-quart saucepan. In it combine sugar, water, corn syrup, vinegar, and salt. Cook to 270° (soft-crack stage), stirring frequently (mixture should boil gently over entire surface). remove from heat; stir in vanilla.
    Slowly pour mixture over hot popcorn. Sit in just until mixed. Butter hands; using a buttered cup, scoop up popcorn mixture. Shape with buttered hands into 2-1/2 to 3-inch balls.
