Zubereitung von Popcorn Balls Fit For More Than Just Kids
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine 1 cup molasses, 1 cup granulated sugar, ½ cup light corn syrup, ¼ cup water, 1 tablespoon white vinegar, and ½ teaspoon salt. Clip a candy thermometer to the side of the pan, ensuring it doesn't touch the bottom.
- Cook over medium-high heat, WITHOUT stirring, until the mixture reaches 270°F (132°C) on a candy thermometer. This will take approximately 10-15 minutes. Watch carefully!
- Remove from heat immediately. Stir in 6 tablespoons (3 ounces) unsalted butter and 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract.
- Gently pour the hot syrup over 12 cups of popped popcorn in a large bowl, stirring constantly to coat each kernel evenly. Work quickly, as the syrup will begin to cool and thicken.
- Lightly grease your hands with butter or cooking spray. Scoop out handfuls of the popcorn mixture and form into balls approximately the size of your fist.
- Place the popcorn balls on wax paper to cool completely. Once cooled, wrap each ball individually in wax paper to prevent sticking.
- Enjoy your incredibly delicious, gourmet popcorn balls!
