Peanut Butter Popcorn Balls
My mom made these peanut butter popcorn balls every Halloween when I was a kid and it was still okay to give out homemade treats. Now I make it as a moist and chewy fall snack. You can make it into balls or leave it loose and serve it like caramel corn if you prefer.
Ingredients
-
1 cup brown sugar
-
⅔ cup white corn syrup

Place popcorn into a large bowl. Pour peanut butter mixture over top and toss until evenly coated. Use buttered hands to form mixture into about 16 balls. Arrange balls on a waxed paper-lined baking sheet and let set for at least 30 minutes.
