992 - Pink Sugared Popcorn #

(by Ruth Garrett - friend)
5 cups popped popcorn (plain)
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup water
red food coloring
1 1/2 TBSP Domino's powdered sugar

In a large bowl add popped popcorn (remove any unpopped kernels)--set aside. In a saucepan over low heat add water and white sugar--stir and cook until sugar dissolves, then stir and cook to 238 degrees on a candy thermometer (or drop a bit of the sugar mixture into cold water--if a soft ball forms, it's ready). When heated, remove saucepan from heat and add enough red food coloring to make the mixture light pink--stir. Pour the pink mixture over the popcorn in the bowl. Use a wooden spoon to stir until all popcorn is pink. Sprinkle the powdered sugar over the top of the popcorn and stir with a wooden spoon until mixed. Cover cookie sheets with wax paper--spread coated popcorn on top of wax paper, then use a knife to gently separate the popcorn pieces so they don't stick together. Cool completely. THIS RECIPE DOES NOT TURN OUT RIGHT IF DOUBLED.
