Comment préparer 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!
