Ingredients

  • 1cupbrown sugar

  • cupwhite corn syrup

  • ¼cupbutter

  • 1cuppeanut butter

  • 20cupspopped popcorn

Cooking Directions

  1. Combine brown sugar, corn syrup, and butter in a large saucepan over medium heat; cook and stir until mixture comes to a rolling boil. Remove from the heat, add peanut butter, and stir until smooth.

  2. Place popcorn into a large bowl. Pour peanut butter mixture over top and toss until evenly coated. Use buttered hands to form mixture into about 16 balls. Arrange balls on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet and let set for at least 30 minutes.

Tips

This will set up quickly, so if it gets too cool to form into balls, microwave for 15 to 30 seconds. Only do this once, or it will burn.
