Instructions

Pop the popcorn kernels according to package instructions and transfer to a large bowl.
In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine sugar, butter, corn syrup, and vanilla extract. Stir continuously until melted and smooth, about 5 minutes.
Pour the caramel sauce over the popped popcorn, stirring quickly to coat evenly.
Let the mixture cool slightly before greasing your hands with butter or oil and forming into golf ball-sized balls.
Place the formed balls on a parchment-lined baking sheet and let set for at least one hour.
