Categories: Candy
Yield: 15 Balls

1 c Light or dark corn syrup
1 c Brown sugar; firmly packed
1/4 c Water
1 ts Vinegar
2 tb Margarine
2 qt Unsalted popped corn

MMMMM----------------PINK CINNAMON POPCORN BALLS---------------------

Combine corn syrup, brown sugar, water, and vinegar in saucepan.
Stirring constantly, cook over medium heat until mixture comes to a
boil. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until temperature
reaches 260 F, or until small amount of mixture dropped into very
cold water forms a ball which is hard enough to hold its shape, yet
plastic. Remove from heat. Quickly add margarine; blend. Slowly pour
over popped corn in large bowl, mixing well. Shape into balls, using
as little pressure as possible. (Grease hands, if desired.)
