I'm having a Popcorn Ball

There may not be dancing but I'm having a popcorn ball making party on Saturday. Really this post is just to save the recipe though so I can find it easily.

Bessie's Popcorn Balls
2 c sugar
1 c Karo syrup
1/2 c butter
pinch of salt
Cook all together 5 minutes, boiling hard.  (Crackly in cold water)
Enough for 4 batches of popcorn with air popper.  Use large dishpan. 

Store in airtight container or wrap in plastic wrap. Mom thinks they look best wrapped in wax paper (twisted on the sides Jolly Rancher style)  but they don't stay crisp like that. 

I'll try to get some pictures from the party.
