Hi Kim,

This recipe isn't for popcorn balls but I'll bet you can shape the mixture into balls after it's cooled a little.

Caramel Puffs
Source: Cookbook USA

1 oz. bag Old Dutch Puff corn curls
1/2 lb. butter
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup light Karo syrup (corn syrup)
1 tsp. baking soda

Place corn curls in a large roasting pan or similar pan with sides.

In a saucepan cook all ingredients except for baking soda. Stir and cook over medium heat until almost boiling. Add teaspoon of baking soda (mixture will foam!). Pour mixture over the corn curls and stir so all are covered.

Place in oven at 250 degrees for 30 to 45 minutes. Stir to prevent bubbling. To cool, pour onto waxed paper, then break apart.

Happy Cooking!
