Popcorn Balls...the recipe!

My mom came through (as she always does) and sent me the recipe for her popcorn balls.

As blog posts go, I know this is kinda the easy way out, but I'm still recharging after the deadline, so forgive me.

And try the popcorn balls.

They rock!


ALLY'S MOM'S POPCORN BALLS

8 or 9 cups popped corn (microwave is fine)

2 cups brown sugar
1 cup oleo
1 tsp vanilla
1 tsp salt
1/2 cup white syrup
1 tsp soda

Boil all ingredients exept corn and soda; boil for five minutes. Remove
from heat; add soda. Stir in quickly. Pour sugar mixture over popcorn
and mix well.

Using buttered hands, combine into popcorn balls. If desired, plastic
gloves work well with the hot syrup.

For caramel popcorn, put corn into flat pans in a 250 degree oven for one
hour. Stir 2 or 3 times. Store in tightly closed container
