Recipe Introduction
Caramel Popcorn Balls
Have 3 quarts of popped corn and put into a large bowl and set aside to keep warm. In a heavy sauce pan, mix:
List of Ingredients
Caramel Popcorn Balls
1 cup firmly packed brown sugar
¾ cup white corn syrup
2 teaspoons cider vinegar
¼ teaspoon salt Recipe
Over low heat stir this until sugar is dissolved, then increase heat and cook rapidly without stirring. Cook to 280° on a candy thermometer. Then when this mixture reaches 280°, gradually stir in 1/3 cup of undiluted evaporated milk and continue cooking to 280° again. Remove from heat and add 1 teaspoon vanilla and stir. Then slowly pour over the popped corn. Stir quickly through the corn with a long handled fork. Dot with 2 tablespoons butter. With buttered hands, form into balls the desired size. Makes about 15 three inch balls. Note: When cooking the syrup, while it is cooking, wash down the crystals that form on the sides of the pan, using a pastry brush dipped in water.
