Grandpa Higginbottom'S Popcorn Balls - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1/4 cup vinegar
1/4 cup water
2 cups sugar
1 tablespoon butter
2 teaspoons vanilla

Preparation

Mix vinegar, water and sugar in a large saucepan.
Cook until brittle when dropped in cold water.
Add butter and vanilla.
Make sure you have bowls of ice water on the table, which has been covered with newspaper.
Pour candy mixture over a very large bowl of popped corn.
Stir mixture with a large wooden spoon.
Coat hands with butter.
(This part gets messy and older children love it!) Working quickly, form balls with your hands.
If you burn your hand, put directly in ice water.
