1 cube (1/2 cup) butter
1/2 cup light karo syrup
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup brown sugar
Mix together and bring to boil (in large, heavy pot). Continue boiling for 2 minutes. Take off burner and add 1/2 teaspoon baking soda. THIS WILL FOAM (do not use a small pan or it will overflow). Pour over 10-12 cups popped popcorn and stir until well coated. Make sure the bowl that you are mixing the popcorn in is large and buttered. You can shape it into popcorn balls, if you prefer, once mixed. Sometimes I will use a paper grocery bag (a large one) sprayed with Pam to mix the popcorn in. Then I transfer it onto wax paper on a countertop to cool or shape into balls.
