{Photo and recipe via Counrty Door Recipes}

Don't they look just YUMMY!
This is an easy recipe and a super fun family activity. Just in case you want to try it:

Grandma Wieland's Never Fail Popcorn Balls

1 cup of white or dark Karo ® syrup (I use white)
1 cup of white sugar
1 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. butter
1 tsp. vanilla

5 quarts of popped popcorn
Food coloring (optional)

Put syrup on to boil, as it begins to boil stir in sugar, remove from heat, add baking powder, stirring until foamy, then add butter and vanilla, mixing well. Pour over 5 quarts of popped popcorn, mix well. Lightly butter your hands and form mixture into balls. Makes approximately 24 popcorn balls.

If you wish to make colored popcorn balls, add food coloring to syrup mixture before pouring on popcorn
 
Happy Eating!
