Popcorn Balls, Popcorn Cake, & Craker Jack Popcorn

Popcorn Balls
1 can sweetened condensed milk
1/2 cup corn syrup
1/2 cup honey
2 cups brown sugar
1/2 cup butter
10 quarts popped corn

Mix ingredients except for condensed milk in 5 quart pot; cook on medium heat until starts to boil, and then slowly add condensed milk.  Cook mixture to soft ball stage (240 degrees), stirring constantly.   Pour mixture over popcorn and when cool enough to touch, form into balls.  

Popcorn Cake
1/2 cup butter
2-10oz bags fresh Kraft marshmallows
Approximately 10 cups popped popcorn (not microwave)

Melt marshmallows and butter in microwave.  Add fresh popped popcorn.  The amount you add varies on the consistency that you like the cake.  Add 1 cup M&M’s and 1 cup salted party peanuts.  Mix and put in a lightly buttered angel food cake pan. 

You can vary the nut and candy addition to whatever you like…ie: almonds, gumdrops or any other favorites.  If you like a caramel popcorn cake – just melt 25 Kraft caramels along w/ the butter and marshmallows.
