Ingredients:
4 tablespoons butter or 4 tablespoons margarine
1 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup light corn syrup
7 1/2 ounces sweetened condensed milk
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
5 quarts popped popcorn
Directions:
Combine butter, brown sugar, and corn syrup.
Stir well and bring to a boil over medium heat.
Stir in condensed milk.
Simmer, stirring constantly, until the mixture forms a soft ball in cold water (takes just a few minutes). It will be between 234-238 degrees farenheit on a candy thermometer.
Stir in vanilla and remove from heat.
Pour over the popped popcorn and stir well.
Butter your hands lightly, and shape the popcorn into balls about 3 1/2 inches in diameter.
