Ingredients
Directions
Line a baking sheet with parchment paper; set aside.
Sort through popcorn; discard unpopped kernels.
Combine evaporated milk, sugar, corn syrup, margarine, and salt in a large saucepan over medium heat; attach a candy thermometer to the saucepan and bring mixture to a boil. Cook, stirring constantly, until caramel reaches 246 degrees F (119 degrees C), about 5 minutes.
Place some popcorn into a very large bowl; pour in some caramel and stir until evenly coated. Add remaining popcorn and caramel in batches, stirring well after each addition.
Scoop some popcorn mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap; gather and twist the plastic wrap to gently shape mixture into a ball. Place popcorn ball on the prepared baking sheet; repeat with remaining popcorn mixture. Cool popcorn balls until set, about 15 minutes.
