Jello Popcorn Balls

I have always loved the gourmet candy popcorn. As I was digging through some recipes on Sunday trying to find something to make that I would have all of the ingredients for (because I had a serious sweet tooth) I came across this jello popcorn ball recipe and decided to try it. It is so simple and really good! We tried strawberry and today I made strawberry colada flavored popcorn balls. I would love to see what grape tastes like or black cherry. I love that I can make different colors for different holidays by choosing a different flavor. Maybe we'll try lime and cherry for Christmas...maybe they'd taste good with two flavors of popcorn mixed together. More experiments to come, I'm sure!
Here's the recipe:

Jello Popcorn Balls

Ingredients:

• 1 cup sugar
• 1 cup karo syrup
• 1 (3 oz.) pkg. of jello, any flavor
• 2 batches of popcorn

Pop the popcorn and get all of the un-popped kernels out. In a medium saucepan, mix sugar, karo syrup and jello until it comes to a boil and the sugar is dissolved. Pour over popcorn and fold the mixture over the popcorn until it is completely covered. Shape into popcorn balls or eat straight from the bowl.
