Halloween is just a few days away and chef Katie Lee taught us how to make some hauntingly delicious treats!
Popcorn Balls
Ingredients:
12 cups popped popcorn
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup light brown sugar
1 cup corn syrup
1 tablespoon butter
1/2 cup water
Optional: brown and orange M&Ms, chopped dried fruit, black and orange jelly beans, toasted pumpkin seeds
Directions:
Line two baking sheets with waxed paper and spray with non-stick cooking spray. Spray a large bowl with cooking spray and place popcorn in it and optional ingredients, if using.
In a medium saucepan fitted with a candy thermometer, bring sugar, brown sugar, corn syrup, butter, and water to a boil over medium-high heat. Reduce heat to medium and cook until mixture reaches 260 F. Carefully pour the syrup over the popcorn mixture. Stir with a greased spoon to distribute. Let sit for 1 to 2 minutes. With greased hands, form into 3 inch balls and place on prepared baking sheets. Let cool completely.
