Serving

4 quarts popped corn
1 1/2 cups granulated sugar

2 tbsp butter
1/2 tsp salt
1/4 tsp cream of tartar
1 tsp baking soda

Directions:

Keep freshly-popped corn warm in large baking pan in 200°F oven.

Remove from heat. After boiling action ceases, add flavoring and color. Add soda and stir in quickly but thoroughly. Pour at once while foamy over warm popcorn; mix gently to coat corn. Shape into balls or spread onto cookie sheet and break into pieces when cool.
