Ingredients

  • 2 cups Steen's Cane Syrup
  • tbsp butter or margarine
  • ¼ tsp salt
  • 2 quarts popped popcorn
  • salted peanuts optional

Directions

Pop the popcorn according to package directions. Combine with the peanuts if you are choosing to add them.

In a heavy duty pan over a low fire, combine the syrup and salt and boil to the hard boil stage (when a small amount dropped in a cup of water becomes brittle). Remove off the fire and add the butter. Coat the popcorn and shape into balls about the size of a hardball or softball. Careful when you first pour the syrup, it is hot...C'est chaud!
