Maple Popcorn Balls
This is an old Algonquian treat — the original Cracker Jack.
1/4 cup popping corn
1/2 teaspoon salt (optional)
1 cup maple syrup
1 1/2 teaspoons butter
Pop corn according to package directions. Season with salt, if desired.
Heat syrup and butter in a heavy saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring
constantly until temperature reaches 250 degrees F on a candy thermometer or
until a few drops form soft balls when dropped in cold water.
Remove pan from heat and pour mixture over popcorn. When mixture is cool
enough, toss popcorn with syrup and mold into balls, and cool on a buttered
baking sheet. Store cooled popcorn balls in an airtight container.
Makes about 8.
