Grandma's Popcorn Balls


My grandma made the best popcorn balls every year for halloween. everybody wanted her recipe and lucky me - i got it 30 years before she passed away. now that i am a grandma of 3, i look forward to making these for my grand children.

Steps


In large pot mix well the sugar , kayro syrup , vinegar and bring to boil.
Continue until mixture reaches the hard crack stage on candy thermometer.

Butter your hands and scoop enough coated mixture to form baseball sized balls.
You have to work quickly as the coating will harden very fast.
