Excellent and too easy to make. I had these done in 15 minutes. I bought a huge bag of popped popcorn. 4 cups equal 1 quart. I filled up my 5 qt crock pot that I had greased. The mixture came to a boil in no time. I did add a bit of vanilla. I am not normally a popcorn ball eater but these were great. I let them cool for a couple of minutes and then formed them with my greased hands. Pat them lightly. Do not crush the popcorn. I passed them to my 6 yr old who had sandwich bags open and ready for me. They held together well. No need to grease the bags. Will make again.

Fantastic. These really are the best ever. I did add a teaspoon of vanilla, but they would have been great without it, because it was the chewy and crunchy texture that made these the best popcorn balls I've ever had.

Made these for my family for New Year's Eve. Very easy and oh so good. Nice and chewy soft and unlike other recipes, won't break your teeth biting into them. 5 quarts of popcorn came out to 20 cups.

We made these to give to the neighbors as gifts. Hubby has been gobbling up the few remaining ones like there is no tomorrow.

I love popcorn balls, especially gooey, chewy ones but I've never attempted to make them myself until I found this recipe. It was very easy and for my first attempt I am very pleased with the result. I ended up with 18 small-medium sized balls that are are definitely gooey, chewy and delicious. Thanks for the recipe. Will definitely make again!!

First time ever making popcorn balls. It was sooooo easy and they were sooooooo so delicious, the best I've ever tasted. They were buttery and sweet and just a ball of total scrumptiousness. I used buttered Pop Secret microwave popping corn. Soft and chewy, not dry! So yummy!

I made half a recipe using one bag of Orville Redenbacher microwave popcorn. It was very easy to make and came out great. I sprayed my hands with Pam before forming the balls. Be sure to pick out all the unpopped kernels before you add the syrup mixture. Good, fun recipe!
